New quote from Gabe Newell that makes me laugh

[Gwarsbane]

Athlon7 asks: The Steam delivery method is sure to be very popular for the nearing HL2 release. Are you confident that the server infrastructure in place will be able to handle the massive amounts of bandwidth required by the thousands downloading HL2 via steam?

Gabe Newell: This issue scares the pants off of us. Every time we think we understand the aggregate demand that can be created by the community, we find that we have underestimated it catastrophically.

So basically they totally underestimated how many people would be playing the game.

That's actually quite interesting... but it's also what we already knew, though only suspected without confirmation... I'll read the interview later... too many screens wanting too much attention on too many computers!
