[QUOTE="TattooedMac, post: 1020944, member: 101749"] If you do a update via the System Updater note down all the updates then go directly to site and manually dl them. Then with the .dmg files all you need to do is drag and drop them onto a flash drive, and viola you have them to put on your nieces Mac. Wish i had a Aunty/Uncle like you lol I personally do this especially with the bigger updates, like the 10.6.0 to 10.6.2 ... Its something like 724mb. I keep a update file that i save these, in case i to a OS reinstall and such. You will always have them at your beckon call :) Cheers EDIT : and FYI when getting the system update, ie 10.6.0 to 10.6.2 ALWAYS get the combo update. Cant stress this enough. It goes over and beyond the Automatic update that isnt the combo one ... [/QUOTE]
