Apologies for the x-post but these two groups seem to have borne the 
brunt of the Valve/Steam debate

The latest UK DVD Edition of PC Gamer (May) has 4.5GB of HL2 and CS:S 
patches and updates including the bots for CS:S - in fact the full Steam 
cache as available at whatever point the DVD was burned.  It was 
released for "everyone who is struggling to download the files online"

Seems like Valve *does* listen to gamers...

Let the flamewars begin ;-)

It's a bit of a jump isn't it? I mean, er, chartered accountancy to lion 
taming in one go.
You don't think it might be better if you worked your way toward lion 
taming, say, via banking...
