Aint we a little sesitive today ? I dont see any insult.
You are oversensitive.
And no, personal insults do not invalidate good points.
They are only that, insults , and they shouldnt be posted ,
thats true, but they dont invalidate per se an argument.

Nice personal insults :thumbsup:
Then you go on to call me a fanboy in other words.
As soon as you started with the personal insults it immediatly
invalidates all your arguments.
I'll be stepping out of this "rant" as you failed to counter any of my
points, but hey you insulted me personally with bad facts, so it's all
good?

Hello Ben,

Please be more careful reading my letter - I told you that we HAVE
TRIED several times and they just ignored us. The only thing I
received (3 or 4 weeks ago) was some letter "your question is in the
queue for answer" and still no reply. Not telling that I've used
steampowered.com to find out what's wrong with HL2 because everything
was red in game - again, no answer.
I work in game industry and know people from another companies (who
also might read this letter) and they all agree that idea of Steam is
great, but Steam itself is a big problem.
Let's just imagine, what will be with all those people who have purchased
Half-Life 2 if Valve would decide suddenly to quit game business? Who
will play Half-Life 2 then? No one.

Stefan already wrote you regarding this.

activate it.
A lot of PC's are sold with already installed Windows XP and those who
can't reinstall it usually call to some service center. As for
"countless other programs" I haven't seen any. And hey, I am not a
noob who found link to this mailing list today and just decided to
write here, I work with computers as long as I remember myself.

It worked for 2 or 3 weeks. We have followed all the steps in Valve
Steam FAQ, we have made backup of .blob file.

We also had such CPU usage of your lovely Steam on every our PC.
You love your Steam so much, but there are so many other people who
don't like it. I can tell you that as admin of
http://www.hl2source.com who receives a lot "positive" feedback about
Steam.
