    Yes Steam allows you to install games on multiple computers. You can access your Steam library from any computer.

    You just can't be logged on to both at the same time.

    I believe it's on sale via Gamefly this weekend for $40.

    Skyrim also uses cloud saving now, so savegames would sync the latest progress from a desktop machine to a notebook.
