While downloading Shogun 2 on my desktop and installing some Torchlight mods on my laptop today I found a neat trick. It has to do with downloading a game via Steam on one computer and playing a game (or downloading, chatting with friends, etc) on a second computer via Steam using the same account. It can be done with minimal hassle which I will detail below the break.
3. Even if you have Steam set to auto log-in It will ask you to enter your password because you are already logged in elsewhere. Do it and Steam should start normally.
4.Now observe on the first computer that the "You've been logged out" prompt asking you to log back in appears, however your games continue to download in the background. Don't hit "cancel" or Steam exits and don't log back in or it will log you out on the second computer. If you left the first computer on the download monitor screen you can review their progress as you normally would, but you can't otherwise interact with Steam.
5. Enjoy playing a game on your second computer while downloading on your first!
I haven't verified that this works on Mac, but I imagine it will behave similarly.
Saw this in a park; makes perfect sense to me.

Had a great weekend with family and the monkey moose had fun hunting for Easter Eggs! Plus it was a great excuse to dust off the DSLR which I have had far too little time to screw around with. Find some awesomely cuteness after the break.
