lol, in the last week I have:

Setup dualboot linux/windows, installed my 6 fav games on the linux side

Decided I didnt like that distro, wiped it and reinstalled with a new distro. then installed my 6 fav games

messed something up and decided it would be faster to reinstall again, did that and re-installed my 6 fav games.

got issues with my steam deployment, mucked about and fixed it but in the process deleted my previous install. realized i could just copy the data from the windows partition across and did that.

With this scenario I could be up for 24 install charges, despite never playing the games.

My 15 yr old son is teaching himself programing for the purpose of being a games developer and this news horrifies him. I really dont see this is going to last.

*Edit, 30 installs. forgot to count the windows installs.
