Comment(by frances):

 Replying to [comment:33 frances]:
 > In 8.2-760 my XO automatically connected with the school server (as it
 was registered with under 8.2-759) and the software update allows me to
 choose cancel, later or check now.
 >
 > A second XO i upgraded automatically connected with medialab (unsure if
 it was registered to a school server while in 8.2-759) and when I selected
 "later" for the software update, then loaded a few activities and played
 them before shutdown, when I rebooted the three options came up again.
 When I selected cancel, and after opening and playing a few activities
 again, upon reboot the options were no longer available. Had to go into
 control panel and select software update manually. [Upon reboot the XO
 automatically connected to school server (!)]
 >
 > Software update options confirmed working.

 note: it does not indicate that updates will not take effect until reboot
 has happened when upgraded manually. Should we have an alert or even a
 "button" for this after manual upgrade?
