update Windows offline (not connect to Internet0

My company buy a lot of computers and we have to update Windows to all
computers that we have to use around 3 hours to download and finish update
Windows for 1 computer. So is there any way to update Windows offline? (may
be, I download all update install files first and tell new computers to get
files from my computer, or something like that. Please suggest.)

Thanks a lot

or if you're just wanting to update computers that aren't connected etc -

Security updates are available on ISO-9660 CD image files from the Microsoft Download
Center

You can also download individual updates from the Catalog and save to be installed later.
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx

Click Add button for each update you want to download. Once you have what you want, Click
the "Go To Download Basket" link. Type in or browse to the location where you want the
updates saved to and then Click the "Download Now" button.
Once downloaded, you can then burn them to CD.
