I was always baffled by the fact that MS's corporate customers wanted
a monthly patch day. Ok, I understand that it was a lot of work for
sysadmins to keep up with the constant flood of updates they had to
deal with before. But we're talking about /corporate/ customers - with
valuable data on their systems. They would prefer to have known
vulnerabilities on their computers left unpatched for up to a month
rather than hire more support staff? Crazy...
