Hey guys,

Steam just put up a link on their page about a new UI update with all sorts of new features but there's one feature i really care about and it has to do with the system requirements. which are listed as

Windows XP, Vista, or 7 . 256 MB RAM
1 Ghz or faster processor . 1GB HD space (recommended)
Internet connection (broadband recommended)

No OSX and they don't mention it under any of the steam changes! how can they be bringing steam to OSX this month and have an ad about steam updates but not mention OSX at all? We are in April and we've got no release date. I'm beginning to doubt that it will be released this month. What do you guys think?

They need to be working on getting Episode 3 out. Not worrying about Mac users.

How is performance? Last time I tried that beta it was the slowest piece of crap. Im running Windows 7 64bit. I think that was the problem before. How it is it now?

I highly doubt the same group is working on the two projects simultaneously and that they making a choice between working on steam for mac or episode 3....
