[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 867340, member: 24160"] They do not take up "memory" and basically have zero effect on your memory. Like any other data you put on your machine, whether it is an application, a document, a song, a video, etc. they will take up "space" on your hard drive. Yes, some updates will replace some system files on your machine with new system files, but not all. If your hard drive is getting full to the point where you are concerned with installing updates to your operating system and applications, I would suggest you need to invest in a new larger hard drive and an external drive for backups.
