Microsoft is throwing big money at Windows Update, the company's infrastructure and technologies for distributing patches to its ubiquitous Windows software. "I don't know if everyone understands how much we're investing in Windows Update and what a service it is. We've spent about $60 million on Windows Update," Jim Allchin, Microsoft group vice president for platforms, said during his keynote address on Tuesday at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference in Seattle.
