    Here from wikipedia: 
     


     Mac OS X release

    On March 8, 2010, Valve announced that Steam was in development for Mac OS X and would be released in April 2010. Prior to this announcement, it teased the release through several images emailed to Mac community and gaming web sites featuring Valve game characters with Apple logos or featured in parodies of old Macintoshadvertisements.

    With its release, Valve will include native Mac OS X, OpenGL versions of Left 4 DeadLeft 4 Dead 2Team Fortress 2Counter-Strike: SourcePortal, and the entire Half-Life seriesPortal 2, due by the end of 2010, will be simultaneously released on both the Windows and Mac versions of Steam. Through "Steam Play", the Mac client will allow players who have already purchased compatible products in the Windows version to re-download the Mac versions at no cost, allowing them to continue to play the game on the other platform. The Steam Cloud will be cross-platform compatible. Multiplayer games are also cross-compatible, allowing Windows and Mac players to play with each other.
