Will Valve support some sort of backup of HL2? Lets say I buy and download HL2 via Stream and backup the files to some CD-R:s, external harddrive or somewhere else. Then after some months I format my harddrive. Can I then just take my backup-files and copy them to the Steam-download folder, even if both Steam and HL2 have had updates after my backup? It would be a little anoying having to download 2.5 Gb twice or more, just because you didn't go out and buy a boxed copy :(
One other thing... I don't have a DVD-drive... Does that mean I can't buy a retail version? (I've read somewhere, that the release will be DVD only)

The total download size of HL2 for the silver pack is around 2.5Gb (on disk size is much bigger because its uncompressed). If you have any other questions feel free to ask the source next time :)
The SDK uses content from CS:S to function, so you need to own it first to run the SDK.
