Linux update: .... click ... forget about it as it runs in the background

Windows update: ... why is my system running like molasses???? .... oh there's an update .... click .... now it's running even slower!!! ... I'm in the middle of something!!! ... I DON'T WANT TO SHUT DOWN!! ... WAIT FOR THE UPDATE TO INSTALL!!! ... How long is this going to take?????"

Mac update: ...... I wouldn't know, I've never owned a Mac because I could never afford one.
