I love playing DOD Source but want to install on my other PC for my son to play with me but I need a second copy of Half Life 2, this really galls me as I have bought a genuine game and now need to buy a second one for some one else to play it on another PC in the same household as it is locked to that PC( 4 pc's in house)...................is there a way round this??????

If you are playing against only your son on local lan it should be ok, i think it only locks the account if you are playing online.

I want to play online with my son, But I can't even download source as I don't have a second copy of HL2.

You can install it and download source on a 2nd pc using your steam account details however as before it will only allow offline lan play, you've gotta buy 2 copies if you want to play online. Or find a crack for halflife 2 and use a different cd key but from what i've read it was a pain in the *** to get around the steam protection.
