I don't know how many of you already know about this but until May 24th, Valve is giving away free Portal to PC and Mac users. If you haven't gotten a copy yet, go now!
Or possibly in a little bit as I think their servers are a bit busy at the moment. >.>
If you have Steam already installed you can also go directly to the Portal page there and download.
Dunno if anyone here would be interested, or if they are would not already have the game, but figured it couldn't hurt to share the news. :)

I was just about to post this:
PORTAL is now free. But only until the 24th of May (i.e., get it now and own it forevermore, not that it will vanish from your hard drive on the 24th).
PORTAL is one of the best games released in the last decade or so, is extremely funny, quite short (about 3 hours or so), quite original and totally barking demented. It's also where that 'Still Alive' song that lots of people like on Rock Band came from. For the price of absolutely nothing, it's quite a steal.
Obviously Valve have reasons for doing this: they are publicising the release of Portal 2 this autumn (when it will also be available on PS3 and X-Box 360) and the imminent arrival of their entire back-catalogue on the Mac OS platform. But you can ignore all of that and just get Portal. For nothing. Like now.
