This weekend I installed Steam on a second computer to see how my
account would work on multiple computers. Turns out that this works
great. Once I installed the client (which took about 1 minute) all my
purchased games instantly showed up ready for install/download.

I learned that you cannot be logged onto Steam at the same time from
multiple computers, but can be playing in offline mode on one while
running the second online. Steam tracks your account, not your PC so
you can access your games from pretty much any computer. This is sweet
for several reasons. Digital download done right is really nice.

Thought I would pass that along.

Last night I confirmed that SPORE would run in offline mode on two of
my PCs at once. This is great news for playing non-online games on
multiple PCs in my home.
