Is there a flag required to gain this functionality? If not, the
functionality does not APPEAR to provide by default.
If I have a fresh install of ubuntu, add the mediabuntu and virtualbox
repositories, and install w32codecs and virtual box with an 'apt-get
install w32codecs VirtualBox' from the command line it appears to
download one package and then after that package is complete it begins
downloading the next package.
Does this help at all?

To be or not to be, that is the question
2b || !2b
(0b10)*(0b1100010) || !(0b10)*(0b1100010)
0b11000100 || !0b11000100
0b11000100 || 0b00111011
0b11111111
255, that is the answer.
