ya..thats true..procedurals do save a lot of memory as textured are big in size and procedurals are just mathematical functions that are evaluated at the time they are to be displayed(so hard disk space is also not required)...But sometimes procedurals are not the option if you wanna go for a precise control of your textures over your model..But even i agree that procedurals are great...infact i love them(more than painting texture) and they can be used to create such fantastic effects that are really hard to achieve sometimes with conventional texture painting....
