If you have a 'spare' machine and you are going to be updating several machines
or images at home (or in the office), you might set up the 'spare' machine
to run apt-cacher.

It is 'neat', in that once it is initially set up, and you modify the
sources.list
in your 'client' machines, it automatically updates the apt-cacher data base
whenever the first computer updates, and all the other computers
don't have to download it from the 'internet' each time.  It will just come
over your local network quite quickly.  But if a new update does come
in, it doesn't keep you from getting it.pretty rapidly.

I set up one at work one time when were were building and re-building machines
regularly, and it saved us quite a bit of time.
