Bethesda is pleased. Yes it is. You might be too. Why? Well, as the headline that drew you to the story hint: the Skyrim Creation Kit and the Skyrim High-Resolution Texture Pack are available.
Blurb says, "Make sure your system requirements exceed Skyrim’s recommended specs before attempting to install, including Windows Vista or 7 operating system, a minimum of 4GB of system RAM, and a DirectX 9.0c compatible NVIDIA or AMD ATI video card with at least 1 GB of RAM and the latest drivers."
All of the downloads are free.
