What if your computer didn't automatically update virus definitions? It could be exploited and rendered unusable without asking for a lot longer than two minutes. That is just plain poor design.

The poor design at the root of this problem is the fact that, as far as I know, Windows can't update files that are in use. Linux can perform an entire OS upgrade while the computer is in use, and then you can reboot whenever you want and it generally doesn't take any longer than a normal reboot.

Wrong, the updates can be applied while the computer is in use...just don't reboot until you are ready.
