holey moley!!!
Vista has 20 updates (including 5 office updates)
XP has 19 updates ( (5 office updates)
UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!
and I have to install them on 35 computers between today and Sunday

I put them all on including the net framework
net framework (both) needed reboots
the security updates also needed reboots
robin
 
I do the security updates separately in a group
then I do the office ones in a group
I did the netframework 1.1 by itself (it needed a reboot)
I did the netframework 2.1 by itself (it needed a reboot)

so far on 3 computers- 2 xp pro sp3- one vista
these are only my own so far
I have 1 vista, 1 windows7 rc, and 3 xp pros of my own to do
besides my clients computers

No problems from these 3 computers so far

Robin, I know how you feel...I had 13 updates, 41.4 Megs of download (not
including Office) , and a lot of wasted time on all of those .Net updates.
No problems on install and reboot. Only 7 machines to go...can't wait to go
through it all over again next month.
 
have done 22 computers so far ranging from vista to xp pro and home
no problems with updates

None here, I had 14 on my Vista machine and 16 on my husbands XP, all
installed and rebooted without issue.

I had some trouble with the DotNet updates on some machines.

On one, I had to uninstall everything related to that specific version of
dotnet--it was 1.1--and then reinstall it from direct downloads.

Otherwise, pretty smooth.
