it gave me two copies?
just bought it tonight, and it showed twice on the 'install now' window, with two check boxes to download it, and it's also showing up twice in my library, but the one i'm not downloading says it isn't available on my current platform. i'm not too worried about it because it only charged me for the one copy, but i'm just kind of curious as to why it's like that, and if it's an actual playable copy or not (and tradeable would be nice, too)

In the case of GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas, you are supposed to have two versions on your Steam account. One version is the PC version. The one that says it's not available on your current platform is the Mac version. This is how Rockstar Games decided on how they were going to make the three games available for both PC and Mac.

I wouldn't delete, you might as well try and get some use out of it, like trading if you can, or something

It might automatically decide for you depending on your system, but don't take my word for it, just a guess
