I really don't like the fact that I still need to have the DVD in the player when I was under the impression that I didn't need it.

The work-around is: Do the online steam "download" version, using the product key from that DVD.

I'm not sure how the mechanics of this installation work (dunno if you have to actually install the DVD version or if just the product key is enough, for example), but that's Valve's official position on a no-CD installation.

Thanks, I'll try that next time I reinstall my system. I'm still interested in the Gold version to see what posters it comes with though
