Right on cue, Valve has announced that its first official Steam client for Apple Mac computers is now available to download.
The software, available for Intel-based Mac systems running OS X version 10.5.8 or later, has been launched with a library of 57 titles, with Valve stating that "a new group of games highlighting an area of Steam functionality" will be released each following Wednesday.
Valve's initial 57 titles, listed below, all offer support for the newly-launched Steam Play functionality - a feature that allows users to purchase a game for one platform, i.e. Mac, and then play it on another - Windows - at no extra cost.
If you've yet to buy into the Steam content delivery service, and you need an added incentive, here's one; from now until May 24th, any PC or Mac user to download the Steam client is being gifted a free copy of Portal. Sold? Hit steampowered.com for the respective links.
