Updates

Compared to most Linux distros, Windows' updating system is laughably bad. Whilst I doubt we'll ever see a complete system updater from a third party either, Secunia have a little freebie service that spots holes in a few of the more popular Internet-related apps: http://secunia.com/software_inspector

What do you mean (for real, not trolling :p)? Windows Update is pretty smooth. I don't know how update works on Linux... are you saying this because Windows Update doesn't update all the software on your computer but, instead, just updates your OS and its core components?

I tried googling windows update versus linux but couldn't really find anything.

Plus Microsoft's fixed schedule isn't the best idea they've had.

Yeah, I guess that kind of sucks but I could see everyone just complaining about “Microsoft forcing us to use their update software” if they did have such a thing. This way.. they don't have to do any work! haha. :/
