I downloaded and installed this update on three different machines (two Dell
laptops and an MPC desktop workstation) and all three went into a repeating
boot cycle. I couldn't even get them to boot up into "Safe Mode."

I did manage to boot up the MPC using the installation disk and logged into
the Recovery Console. How do I uninstall this update so that I can get my
machine working again?

(I'm just going to reimage the two laptops.)

Try F8 (I think), and boot to last known good configuration.
