No, no, no.  We need to bring this into the 21st century.  A system 
updater like this needs a flashy, 3D-accelerator, 
composite-manager-using, fully transparent, animated GUI with more 
buttons, features, and whiz-bang graphics than you can shake a dead dog 
at.

After all, we can't let any Linux distro beat us to it.  :)
