No since Steam is a 32bit linux/win32 application.  And it probably has
to be p6 compatible since it probably uses some instructions from that
CPU set.

My 8088 is thus adequate for the updates then?

Space Empires 4 and Dangerous Waters don't run on Source and are
distributed by Steam.  Steam is just a program that distributes files.
There's some additional stuff that supports different game engines (ala
hl1 and source)  I am betting they will just update Steam to support
UnrealDED.

I assume the same way they distribute non-Half-Life games now like
Darwinia - dump a load of binary files to some location on a hard disk.

Did I read the news right that Red Orchestra still uses the
UT4 engine?  How does Valve propose to supply a game via Steam that
uses a different engine?  I'd think this question goes beyond the
admin list but would have a direct impact on mod-makers, small software
shops looking for a distribution source other than CD's at Fry's,
and in general provide an idea of what future reason we might have to
place the Steam updatetool on, say, an Unreal 2004 dedicated server.

If it's distributed via Steam and uses a different engine, we
may have to do a few things differently when updating.

Will Steam be the content delivery and Source still be a
different engine such that I can use Steam to load a server on,
say, a box with an AMD-K2 chip or an Intel DX4-100, and the Unreal
engine will run and the Steam update will run, but loading CS:S will
still find the CPU's are out-of-date?

I'm just curious if I'll have to risk updating a box to a
newer CPU to download code that might run on an older one.  Has that
been brought up in the internal discussions?
