Software update is simple.
Say what? Windows update will download and install automatically if you set it to do so. Or you can have it automatically download and notify before install. Or notify before doing either. There's absolutely no need to go to any website and download anything with XP.

This is NOT a "windows vs. mac" post and I'm typing this on my mac mini, but windows update does not require people to manually go anywhere. At least not on XP. I don't know about 98, and I can't imagine why anyone would still run 98 anyway.
