I do not need a solution (just sharing information)

We are considering going with Symantec's cloud AV for our anti-malware needs. One of the most intriguing aspects of this is service is the Local Update Service and its ability to conserve a lot of Internet chatter over our network.Wanted to know if any of you are using this and what "host(s)" you have running the service. I was tempted to enable endpoints that are running a client OS (Win7 Pro 64-bit) that are not really utilized all that much anyway, so why not make them a host for this? However in reading through the Implementation Guides and such, they recommend a server OS. Why is that and have any of you had any luck doing what I am thinking about attempting. Thanks to all.
