With the impending release of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, Special Edition scheduled for July 7, Steam is now allowing its users to pre-order (or, in Valve-speak, "pre-purchase") the game. For US residents the price is $9.99, the same amount as the Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition costs, while in the United Kingdom MI2:SE is selling for £6.99.
Plus, if you pre-order now, you'll get MI1:SE thrown in for the low, low price of free. Yes, free. Although, I imagine few of our readers really need the added incentive.
EDIT: In the comments, AlfredJ has written in to remind me of something. Unlike the Steam version of the Monkey Island 1 Special Edition, the Monkey Island 2 SE Steam release will feature achievements, the same as those available on the game's console ports.

***Note: This is surely one too many footnote jokes
I was just reading this article on IGN and at the bottom it states the formats its been released on and whats surprised me is the mention of iPad. I thought Craig Derrick said on OXM podcast that there was no iPad version in development???
First Zombie Hunter, now shark wrangler, what next??? lol
Also worth noting (maybe you already did) is that the Steam version of Monkey 2 will have achievements - something that none of the PC versions of Monkey 1 had.
