I just assumed the machine wasn't connected to keep it from getting
infected while it was being patched etc. I don't administer Windows
machines myself, but that's what I heard is recommended when setting up a
new machine. This might of course be useful advice regardless of operating
system, although I've not bothered with it when using Linux. Additionally,
addition, I usually install over the network anyway.

Oops... guess we're getting sidetracked here :-)
