I'm sure you actually had the mirror list working perfectly. That and you probably didn't use Archbang to install from. Apparently there's some discontent in Arch over Archbang from the few posts I saw.

Hmm...I'm guessing that pacman saw I had installed the nvidia drivers and didn't want to make me go through the trouble of having to redo that for another kernel so it hid the update? Or was I supposed to have kernel.org enabled? I honestly have no clue. I mean I had to -Syy before every time I wanted to -Syu just to get things to show up. Honestly, I kind of feel like the Arch community leaves the default install so difficult because they don't want a bunch of "noobs" like me being able to use Arch because after the brutal install work Arch is not really any more difficult than buntu if you don't have a phobia of very limited terminal usage. Their wiki was actually extremely helpful for the most part...though at other times I wondered if they were speaking in programming language at points. Honestly, maybe an easier ncurses interface than what they have going for Archbang and bam...it would be slightly more difficult than buntu instead of being much more all without sacrificing the "you choose everything" mantra.
