Can anyone tell me what happens if I subscribe to steam and download HL2 when it comes out and then I buy a new computer, how can I transfer steam and HL2 over to the new computer.

Thanks for the help

1)See above
2)Redownload HL2, your purchase is locked to your Steam user account, not your PC.

This in theory means you can buy HL2 over steam on your machine, go to your friends house, login to your own account and play HL2 on your friends machine.
They will more than likely only allow one logged in session per account stopping you from sharing your account with others.
 
So when ever I wanted to play HL2 I would have to log into steam before I could play?
 
Right now: Yes
Later on: No

Since they are working on some update that doesnt need Steam if you want to play SinglePlayer but if you want to play MultiPlayer you will have to log on to Steam to play.
