For most of the issues you have raised, I don't disagree.  But from a 
user point of view, it is an issue.  On one weekend, I installed FC4 
on two machines.  With the updates, it added allot of extra download 
time for each machine.  If the DVD's had been current it would have 
been much easier.  For FC5, I plan on updating one machine and then 
making it available for updating the other machine.  At least this 
will save some bandwidth.
