Steam is Coming to Mac

“We are treating the Mac as a tier-1 platform so all of our future games will release simultaneously on Windows, Mac and the Xbox 360,” Cook said. “Updates for the Mac will be available simultaneously with the Windows updates. Furthermore, Mac and Windows players will be part of the same multiplayer universe, sharing servers, lobbies and so forth. We fully support a heterogeneous mix of servers and clients. The first Mac Steam client will be the new generation currently in beta testing on Windows.”

What a great news from Steam, the awesome gaming platform.

I've been contemplating for quite some time whether to install a Windows OS or not, just to give Steam a try. It's coming to Mac soon, time to actually exploit my MacBook Pro graphic processing power.
