    Will I need Steam to be able to download the HL2 benchmark tomorrow?

    I still don't "get" this Steam thing...
    I've read through all of www.steampowered.com, and I still don't really understand its purpose.
    I thought Steam would be a relatively samll "client" download, which would enable you to have access to various supported games. But instead, I see that you have to basically download the entire game w/ the steam functionality built-in. I see no small "Steam Client" download like they mention on the main page...

    Anyway - I'm wondering if I'll need this client (if it exists) to get the HL2 benchmark when it's released tomorrow (hopefully )

    Thanks!
