My 10.6.0 was not done using this guide, but rather one I found on insanelymac.... does this matter or do you clever people think the methods suggested in this thread will work to update my system to 10.6.4? 
Also, another (possibly dumb) question .. if I was to go ahead with the update, is it best to download the stand alone combo updates from Apple or just use the software update from within OSX?
Many thanks for any help you can provide.

The big issue with the upgrades is the Sleepenabler kext. I have never, ever got sleep to work and have tried everything in the 60 pages in this thread. I have even built a second identical system to test this out on (yes I'm mad, but it's still cheaper than a Mac Pro and I was annoyed) and cannot get sleep to ever work. So I pulled the sleepenabler.kext, rebuilt the system and upgraded to 10.6.4 with no problems.
AFAIK there are no differences between upgrading through standalones or direct downloads or through a dedicated Apple server. I run a Mac Mini with a fully legit copy of Snow Leopard Server on, and use that as my distribution point for mac upgrades. However I have used the combo upgrades in the past as well with no differences.
