I've already put money down for this in GS, but I can move it to a different game.  So, what do you think?

Ahh...

Sorry, but I forgot to mention that I hate PC gaming, so I'd have to get a USB controller.

Its up to what you feel will

Its up to what you feel will give you the better gaming experince. Do you have a PC that will be able to produce better graphics then the PS3/Xbox 360 editions? Do you have a problem with paying to play online and/or release content for it? What gaming platfrom do you have a better community of players around (I.E. Having the higest chance of having someone else to play with)? Do you have a wired or wireless Xbox 360 controller (If you have the wired one you can just hook that up to your PC and play)?

Well...

I have a better-than-average PC.  The other thing I forgot to mention is my lack of a working LIVE account.

Well, I don't mind PC gaming

Well, I don't mind PC gaming but that's not much of a choice for me atm.  Even if I had a PC that could run Borderlands well, I'd still go w/ my 360 because I won't buy a top-of-the-line PC.  I'm looking to upgrade for Diablo III and Starcraft 2, but I tend to buy most of the mulit-platform stuff for my 360.

I'd rather own a real copy of

I'd rather own a hands-on copy of the game, plus then if your internet goes down you can still play your game.

Well personally I would go

Well personally I would go for the PC version if you currently dont have a gold account since its needed to play online coop anyways. On the graphics side. I have not seen the requirements yet so it can be hard to say if your PC will be able to produce better graphics then what the xbox/ps3 version can offer. You said you liked playing with a controller so what you can do, if you wish to spend the money, is go out and buy a wired 360 controller. You can plug those directly into your computer and use it like a normal 360 controller.

Also you dont need to be online to play Steam games. Thats a common misconception of Steam. Once you have it downloaded to your computer you can play it regardless if you have access to the internet or not.
