1. Launch Software Update
2. After it has determined what files you need, select one and click 
on the Update Menu
3. You have three options under the Update Menu: "Download Only", 
"Install", "Install and Keep Package"
3. The "Install" option is just the same as the "Install" button in 
the lower right of the Software Update window. The last option 
downloads, then installs the update and keeps the package on the hard 
drive. The first option just saves the package to your hard drive. 
The packages can be found in the Hard drive/Library/Packages folder.
