I feel kinda sorry for the 11% of HL2 players that are trying to get it to run on their GeForce 4 MX cards.

How about the 18 people using a Cyrix CPU? :Q
 
I think that's a poll for steams' entire network.
So that's all the original HL people as well, but i could be wrong.

Glad to see most people have broadband, i'd hate to play with the 2% that didn't.
The registration isn't that big of a deal, i've been registered since the release of 1.6, and that registration isn't something i regret (ie spam). shrugs* if valve wants to know my email address, and have me generate a username/password fine. I think that's how they'll distribute updates to the game too (though i could be wrong on that)

If anything, this part should tell Valve (and everyone else!) which medium to choose for future releases:

DriveType:
69,692 7.04% Undetermined
168,138 16.98% CD-Rom
752,280 75.98% DVD

or perhaps steam 😉
 
I'm really surprised that they charge the same amount for an online download/install as they do for the retail release. Seems like it would be cheaper without any media, manuals, boxes or shelf space.
