But am I going to have to download them all in one go were I to buy a game or is there some sort of client with GOG where I can download them bit by bit.
Downloading a 3GB game for example could take me a whole day.
They get added to your account. You can just log-in to redownload your games and there is no client.

@edhe There is an optional GOG downloader (question 6) which you can use. The download speeds are faster and you can pause your downloads at any time when using it.

That sounds like what I'm looking for. Thanks.
And I assume them being DRM free (@Ravage ), I can transfer them like a picture file across any compute I own in the future?
Yeah, you can install games you buy on any number of computers and you can back them up/copy them as many times as you like. The installers are just files. You don't need to login to a client whenever you play the games (like Steam for example). There are no restrictions. GOG makes a point of treating their customers well and trusting them to be reasonable.
They ask that you respect the owner's rights and don't share the games you buy, but they don't actively try to stop you either.
lol GabeCube. I would think their console would be a bit more rotund.

Today's the day that Meet the Medic is supposed to release.
Ah, you forget, good friend, that Valve Time is ever-present and will always delay Valve products no matter what their status.

@Swiket Yeah, I'm getting extremely annoyed by them too. However, it's not as bad here as on other forums of the web.
