1. Install game.
2. Overwrite install with image.
3. ...
4. Profit!
With 4 computers to update (and sometimes deal with hardware issues), why wait for all of them to download and apply a major release, much less a new install?

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

That's all well and good, but when your computer dies and you have to buy a new one and you have to reinstall the game... sometimes you have to patch as well.|

thankfully the game is relatively small when it comes to size of downloadable mmos. Some are like 15 gig, others 20 or 30 (especially after you include the three expansion packs as pure download).
Welcome back! I still have fond memories of teaming with you and seeing how a Kin should be played.
