notes of Windows 7 install

Over the weekend, an install of Windows 7 as a guest in virtualbox went smoothly. However, after a few hours of use, upon shutdown over 100 updates needed to be applied. A message warned not to force a shutdown, so the laptop needed to sit over an hour waiting for the updates. I have not tried slipstreaming Windows 7 but may need to investigate that option next time. An article about slipstreaming Windows 7 is published at PC World. It looks like a rather involved process however.
