On November 3rd, Valve software announced that the “Steam Cloud” will be shipped with the release of the Left 4 Dead demo.
The whole story can be found at this link.
What the Steam Cloud seems to boil down to, if you move around from one computer to another, your game settings will travel with you. This sounds like a good idea, but is it really needed? How many people play their games on more then one or two computers?
But then again, lets say the computer is shared between several people - when each person logs into their steam account, their config will download to that system. When the next person logs into their steam account, their config will be downloaded. This sounds like a good idea for places such as a cyber cafe.
