If Steam downloads an update to your PC and nobody was there to see
it - did it download ?

Probably the wrong answer /question - its been a while since I
understood this stuff ;-)

I think the issue (and difool's got issues!) is more along the lines
of:
"If steam downloads a mind-control update to my head and i don't
notice - am i still a poor deluded evil mindless zombie slave of the
evil steam empire bent on world domination and the downfall of western
civilzation STEAM MUST DIE DIE STEAMDIEDIEDIE!!!!"

Or somesuch. I'm pretty sure I got the general gist right.

If you check the download it will sometimes disappear and other times not.
Leave my cat out of it.
