Naturally you need a steam account to get it.

Also, it's the first valve game that is now 100% Mac compatible.

And apparently Mac versions of Steam come with the game now. For free, of course.

Most of my gamer friends already have it, but I wonder if I can convince some of my non-gamer friends to give it a try...

This is actually really good marketing for the sequel, and I'm surprised that more companies don't do this.

Exactly. This is an old-ish game, that won't make much money anymore, and it's pretty short too. It's the perfect showcase for Steam, and a good opportunity for Valve to get people curious about the sequel.

I have to say, Valve's advertising campaign for the Mac release of steam has been pretty interesting. First the funny slogans, now free Portal. This is a company that knows what they're doing..

Heavy iTunes, Alyx 1984, Francis hates different, why can't other companies be this witty?

Just remember "Old" coupled with "Macbook" typically means "This game is not going to run."

Well, my hopes got dashed when I found out that 90% of Steam's games won't run on this thing because of the damn integrated graphics chip. Maybe when I have the time to fix it this weekend i'll go in and fix the PC enough that it can run Steam again, but whatever.

More like "game" coupled with "Macbook" means it's not going to run.

Quite ironic, considering the first post of this topic. :)
