Location It depends. Which one of me are we talking about?
Favourite OS 7100
I second what Wumbowalrus said and I agree with MrTUB, I will also include the updates in my custom ISO. I have been using the CP for about 4 weeks and I am honestly starting to get used to it, that doesn't mean I like it, but I am getting used to Metro.

Aye, I agree. Maybe even for abandonware OSes!
In time, because it is not yet Abandonware.
What he means is that if anyone has any offline updates for abandonware OSes they should upload them and we could start Abandonware Offline Updates and Beta Offline Updates sections.

Yah, it might not be a good idea if that is all we have left. We should save that space for more important stuff, but also how much space could some updates take up? They normally aren't terribly big.

Imagine keeping all the updates for NT 3.1, 3.5, 3.51, Windows 95, NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows 7 (beta) and Windows 8 (betas). That takes a truckload of space IMO.

Yes it would be. It is a great idea if we had the space though.
Added: Perhaps if we only kept offline updates for Windows 7 Beta and Windows 8 Beta and forget about the updates for older versions of Windows, the abandonware.
