What can Microsoft really do.
Offer Gabe billions of dollars, Gabe already has more money than he could ever spend.
An IPO would probably earn Gabe more money than Microsoft is willing / able to pay anyway.

I personally don't think that Gabe will sell Valve... but this argument is a bit flawed:

George Lucas also already had more money than he could ever spend. And if he had produced the new Star Wars movies himself, he would probably have earned more money than Disney was willing to pay him. Nevertheless he sold Lucasfilm to Disney.

So there have been precedences going against common sense.

When Gabe sells Valve/Steam, it will be for the same reason as Lucas: he's tired of all the problems related to running the company and wants to get rid of it. How close is Gabe to that point? Only he knows.

To improve loading times there's only one solution: faster storage. You'll need an SSD.

Would that have a really noticeable affect? I thought it would have been the CPU I'd need to upgrade for that. But if an SSD could do it I might have to start looking into getting one.

Trust me, you'll notice the upgrade from the very same moment you turn on your PC.

That said, I remember that your PC is a bit old, and I don't know if your motherboard will have an SATA 3 port to fully notice the extra speed of an SSD.
