--- Comment #32 from Daniel Harvison sirbubbles01@yahoo.com.au 2009-02-07 02:48:51 --- Possible workaround for me is as follows. Installing Firefox or some other windows web browser in your wine install will allow you to buy or download games as when you click on the install link, it will allow you to launch steam, which then takes care of the rest of the process. It's how I was able to buy and download Mass Effect and other things. Trouble is, flash is a bit screwed up now under wine.
