Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I have to deploy 15 new computers
in my office and these are all fresh IBM PreInstalled XP Pro machines.
Does anyone know from where I can download all available patches since XP
SP2 to one machine and update all of the machines locally rather than
connecting each machine to windows update and have them download everything
individually ?
I need to do this as I have limited bandwidth (128kbps) and it would take
too long for all the computers to download the patches individually.

Thanks very much for your help.
