Group other than Administrator

Is it possible to install Windows updates logged on to
your local workstation without being in the Administrators
group?

If you are running a network of 1000+ PC's with all users
either having Power User authority or User Group
authority, how would you deploy the latest patches without
giving them the administrator password or granting their
user administrator rights?

You should look at Software Update Server from MS. This
will allow you to push the updates from one of your
servers to all your clients, without the users being in
the admin group.

Thank you. I was looking into SUS but was not sure it
would have the same authority problem.
