I could not even begin to describe the agony of trying to maintain steam on my wilting computer. Half Life wont even install now, and though I thought the steam file was about 700 megs in size, the SteamPowered website allowed me to download and install it in minutes. Can anyone explain this? I have not engaged in the Half Life in some time, but I would enjoy doing so.700megs is the FULL steam install including ALL steam caches for CS, DOD, HLDM, RICO, TFC, DMC, and not forgetting OF and the DS. If you download the small version, you'll have to download the game cache's before you can play them... thus eventually you'll download 700mb ;-)
