<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I would drop all games altogether. <br>
<br>
I don't know how many play simple desktop games in 2015, but I
would imagine its a lesser number than browser-based game players.
Ultimately, it's definitely less than people who use social
media... That being said, I'm sure people will rather log in to
Facebook/you-name-it when installing rather than play a game of
Minesweeper.<br>
<br>
After installation, it's easy enough to install games from the
repositories; and you get what you like too.<br>
<br>
Dave, I don't know about potential licensing issues, but even
without them, shipping Steam isn't sensible with any distribution.
Only the amount of data we would need to ship with every download
is beyond insanity – just to install a few games the user might or
might not play once, let alone talking about several times... And
who could guarantee Steam/the games even work on their boxes?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Pasi<br>

<div> I would agree, that only one or two of the existing games.
(First thing I do is install the games I actually use). </div>

<div> This may get me shot down :-) , but how about including the
steam installer undergame with just one or two games.. </div>

need more that minesweeper + 1 other</p>
