New Method to Download all the VMware ESX Updates

http://support.vmware.com/selfsupport/download/#wlp_s3portal_pages_downloadPatch_page

Without VI 3.5 and Update Manager implemented, downloading all the patches can be a major pain. But with this newly released wizard, it is a major breeze.

Select your product and version. Click go and then wait for the list of patches to appear. Click on the check boxes to select the patches you want and then click the download button at the bottom.

Ths only thing missing is a "Click to download all" button or option, rather than forcing you to select each check box for all the patches individually. I hope that is coming soon.

(Hey, Citrix. Still waiting for a better way to obtain Citrix Updates. Whether it is a Windows Update equivalent or something like this, I don't care. Anything is better than what you have now.)
