The forced reboots thing in Windows is nuts. I installed from Windows 8 media a while back, and to get from that to an up-to-date installation of Windows 8.1 requires a seemingly endless loop of "Check for updates. Install. Reboot. Check for more updates that didn't show up last time!"
It's like nobody has told MS about cumulative updates. You can install OS 10.9.0 and go straight through to 10.9.5 with a single update.
Maybe this comes from their "enterprisey" system of releasing everything as individual little patches so that IT can decide what to install and what to skip, but it's a nightmare for normal users.
