Drive Space used by patches......ever wondered?

Ever wondered how much space on our hard drives we end up "losing" to patches whether it be security updates on windows or OSX, Linux(I'm a suse man myself) etc, etc?? I was actually looking at all those updates on my XP machines and said DAM!!! OSX and Linux are a little better but still, think about how much space all these updates take over time. I'd love to hear some opinions on this one, feel free to chime on in!

Some software is catching on to this; in a program called CCleaner, there is the option to delete the uninstallers of certain Microsoft hotfixes to save some space lost by the updating process. I agree though, they must take up a fair amount of hard drive space.
