I will agree with you that applying PTF's suck (I think that is what you
were saying).
You can stay current using SNDPTFORD pretty easily, if you're already
on a decent level of CUM + Groups.
I rarely do it because it is such a pain in the butt. ÂNote I
am NOT an admin type, but I don't think I should need to be.
Do you think that's a good idea? Why do you list this as an advantage
of the IBM i?
Microsoft's Auto Updates (mostly) just work. I'll prefer having a
customers server set to auto-update and run out and fix an issue
caused by updates every two years, rather than the situation i have
with a quarter of our IBM i customers who REFUSE to touch their system
and have unpatched machines running CUME from 2005-2006 and usually
get bitten by some nasty problem, sooner or later.
This is why the IBM i needs an auto-update facility badly.
The only issue i've had with Microsoft's auto updates in the past
three years was this one:

ÂThe only way I
have been able to do it is by way of your blog and wiki posts.
Thanks for the fish ;)
