It probably just knew you already have updater installed, so it didn't
ask you again.
I just checked my main machine, and I have several Google products
like updater, Earth, Desktop Sidebar, Picasa 3, etc. installed, but no
Google Apps. So somewhere during the process I know it must have asked
me and I said 'no'. Or I'm just completely misunderstanding what Apps
is.
But, as Sue just pointed out, this isn't totally your fault. If you
think this was fun, wait until you install the next Flash update. Just
TRY to do it without installing iTunes! Or your next Java update,
which will do it's best to install [brainfart] something else. The
grand daddy of them all is {free} RealMedia, which to this day cannot
be safely installed by *computer experts*!
PS You MUST install all updates having to do with web browsing
*immediately*. This includes Flash and Java. Reason being - these days
that's the primary attack vector for malware (viruses).
