What do you want us to do about it?

[Blackfire]

Why're there two Dakotas? Both ridiculous huge ass states. Sooner or later one will get hit by a big tsunami.

console him thru his time of need enth jeez

[kidwithsword]

I'm pretty sure it is because no one uses CDs anymore. They use something called the internets.

[thund3rdome]

Looks fake, since you always get some synchronisation issues in the beginning of an install/download.

Took 3 minutes for me to install portal. It always goes slower at the first bit as it creates the caches.

[sam2d2]

Mine doesn't install from the disk at all because "Steam servers are too busy to handle request" and I can't be asked to download it because I play on TF2 all the time.

I think this a sign from valve to not play. If you play on 5kb/s you are going to ruin online for everyone.

130 ping isn't that good.

Try under 20, everywhere.
