I think (I haven't done it... at least yet) that simply by exporting /var/cache/apt/archives on a nfs, when each machine runs:
"apt-get update"
updates it's own packages list
and when runs
"apt-get upgrade"
check if the package is allready downloaded, else get it.

REMEMBER: I guess this, not done it, I manage 4 computers and my ISP is so fast that upgrading takes about 6min each, so no need to, however, if somebody does this, and work, please let me know (posting here).
