Quoting: CatKillerthere's a reason Windows has that function, after all.
if i recall correctly, it's more about better compatibility with games doing something outside the official windows-system-calls?
Besides that: what tuubi said ^^

You know your patent system is garbage if there is a patent for fucking buttons on the back that can be successfully sued for instead of being immediately revoked by the judge...

Valve looks to be overhauling Steam Library folders to finally make them more useful

this one actually makes much more sense than the overhauled download-page...i like it :D

Looks like Steam is getting a brand new Downloads page

not really an improvement if you ask me - no new features, but more space wasted and a more boring, flat design (while the old one was flat to begin with!).
But i don't see much room for improvement anyway...maybe it would be nice to have an easy way to alter the scheduled times, but other than that i don't really see anything amiss ^^

Quoting: dpanterThat's really nice, quite useful indeed. A small note, TkG builds the releases in Arch against a newer glibc version that many distros don't have, making the release useless and you'll have to build your own. I feel the script should check or at least warn about this. Cheers!
Good note - i'll try to implement that. Thanks :)

To make a little advertisement: I've created a small gui helper to download and install different versions from GE and TKG - maybe some will find that usefull, as well :)
