It'll be interesting to see the next Steam hardware survey. If the Humble Indie Bundle's OS pie chart is any indication of what kind of computers gamers use, then I think we'll see an impressive number of Mac gamers show up.

EDIT: wait my bad, got it working now

hurrah

edit2: sweet, portal is free for a few days. i get to the store and it's just a blank, black screen, though. is that just because everyone and their mums are downloading right now...?

edit3: no, again, my bad. found how to install it, just had to go through my games or whatever, except now i need to update my mac to .3. whoops.

time to register 1,000,000 new steam accounts with copies of portal and run a business scalping them for $1 when it goes back to costing money.

/evil laughter

THAT'S A MILLION DOLLARS!!!

Kewl, installing right now.

Hmmm. It would appear that since my Desktop died about 9 months ago I've completely lost all information pertaining to my old Steam account.

Oh well. Starting over will probably cost about $50 bucks anyway. It nice of them to offer Portal for free. (I took my mac about 2 hours to download and install)

Edit: When will TF2 and the HL's be out?

Edit: When will TF2 and the HL's be out?

No one knows. It seems they will release a couple of games every Wednesday for the next couple of weeks.

[eAi]

Peggle is also available and not on your list!

 

[Shakermaker]

Portal is still downloading, but I tried Torchlight and that seems to run without a hitch. Bring on TFtoo!

edit Portal runs just fine as well. Good news

Mac users are already accustomed to Steve Jobs telling them how everything they use should look and operate. Why would this be any different.

Valve is on a marketing rampage!
