Upgrades and its installation

[Eric E]

Are there any command line switches to help with the
automated\Silent install or the upgrade? If users do NOT
have Admin permissions they will not be able to upgrade.
Is there a file that can be downloaded to install the
Upgrade?

While this is reported to work, this is not a method which we recommend.
Users following this can see 101 errors and other "stuff" after automated
deployment. The product was just not designed to do this during the beta.
