I know we're talking low prices here, but that doesn't change the fact that apparently we have to pay the Euro markup tax again.

Prices in euros are on average %15+ higher than their British or US equivalent. Add to that the exchange rate, if you live in a European country, where the Euro isn't used as currency.

I think the phrase 'watch this space' applies here!

That'll be 8 Euros now [both Indy titles] and another X on the 15th when they release Monkey Island's remake.
More than worth it, if you ask me!

Check out the minimum Spec's on Steam:

OS: Windows XP or Vista
Processor: Any 2002 era PC or better
Memory: 32 MB RAM
Graphics: 2 MB - PCI Graphics Card
DirectXฎ: Required for sound
Hard Drive: 155 MB
Sound: 16-bit sound card

The game was release in 1992, where you could get away with 286, 1MB of RAM and an 8bit Adlib, I seem to remember it only took about 11MB of space!

I appreciate it's probably the Steam Client's minimum specs but it did make me chuckle

It still is one of the best adventures ever.
Graphics isn't everything.
