Steam solves a portion of the gaming problem.

  However, Steam doesn't take care of syncing your game profiles, saves, etc. That would be worth paying extra for IMO.

    Actually, for some games, Steam will do that too! I don't know when the released it, but if you look in your Steam Library, if the game has a little cloud icon next to it, your saved games and other settings will be shared between computers. Right now on my screen, COD2, Torchlight, Dawn of War II, and a few others all do this. If you go to the Steam menu -> Settings -> Downloads+Cloud, then check the box for enabling steam sync for games that support it.

    You mean something like this? http://www.steampowered.com/steamworks/ov_cloud.php http://www.steampowered.com/steamworks/ov_cloud.php It was introduced to Left 4 Dead late 2008. I'm not sure how widely it's used at this point. In settings you can enable it at the bottom of the Downloads + Cloud tab.

    or you could save your games in a dropbox folder - works great for the couple of steam games I own
