Run all your Windows App in a VM, and when you upgrade the physical hardware, migrate the VM (keep the same VM UUID, etc).
Steam games are consistently higher priced - and you can't get round it with VPNs or Paypal - the credit card # proves you're in Australia.
And it's not like it's priced in Aussie dollars with a mediocre exchange rate - The games are priced on the same store.steampowered.com website in USD dollars.

Being in full-remission for cancer (thanks God!), I'm working for an employer which gives 1 yr sick leave in a rolling 2-year window. It's the only benefit worth talking about (eg we have no coffee), but it's such a biggie, it's keeping me put.
