I had the same objections to steam, but since I have a new Dell Inspiron gaming notebook without DVD I changed my mind.
I could install Skyrim, my favourite game, without any problems using the online installer by entering the serial number.
Even my save games were restored !

So, you're saying you're steamed? Play a game... relax.

Good broadband helps.
My first (and last for many, many years) Steam game was Half Life. Updating Steam via dial up took so long - and failed so often - I never got to play the game (until I got the XBox version which didn't faff about with Steam at all).

I think this is why Steam insists on having a Windows service running all the time and being allowed to automatically update itself.
A few years ago I had Origin installed (if I recall, this is EA's version of Steam), and even though I wasn't playing all that much anymore, I still fired up the Origin client every time I turned on my gaming machine - not to play any game, but to let it update itself. Invariably, if more than a week had gone by, it would have an update.

No. But do you think I didn't tell him direct?

I'm sure you did. But you are wasting valuable drinking time telling us that you've told him what you've told him when he won't read it anyway.

I can drink while doing anything else. It's not depriving me at all.

Ah... there speaks the voice of modern sports fans, where results are all that count... in my day we supported "our" club simply because it was "our" club, even if we did lose 0-4 every week.....

In fairness you came as close if not closer to stopping Man City as anyone else this season so far...

You realise I support Pompey right? I've seen us draw with Kaka and Ronaldinihos Milan - tomorrow I'm watching us play Northampton.

It would have been 4-0 if not for this score.
What was also great fun to watch was Broad surviving a tough time.

No it wouldn't. We can't bat for shite and we're bowling worse. Missing Starc had left us well short.
