Is Steam Down?

I've been trying to connect to steam for a little while now and it is a no go for me. I also tried going to the steampowered forums but it was super slow and eventually timed out. Anyone else seeing this?

I know they are supposed to release an update for TF2 today, but I wouldn't think they'd take the whole frigin thing down to do it.

Edit: Well after 30 mins of trying it finally came back up and all seems to be fine now. TF2 is updating. I wouldn't have thought they would take steam down to update tf2 but that seems what they did. Weird!

heavy updates came out, its always like that, forums die because people hammer them wonder why they cant connect/download etc

i managed to download the full game right when the heavy stuff was released at a reasonable speed (1.5mb/s)
i must have been lucky

They don't take the network down to update the game... they never do that, might've just been too many requests from clients so the upload from Valve's side capped out I don't really know.
