Nobody knows whether that's going to work, you'll just have to wait and see.

Question to those who know more about these things than I (ie, everyone):

Is asking if a PC version will work on a Apple or Linux system akin to asking if a 360 game will work on a Playstation?

Not really.

But it's still annoying. :P

That's not what I meant, I wanted to know if the other version will be accessible for the Steam users (perhaps with the direct download system).

No. It won't.

You buy the Windows version and the Windows version only, as with every other cross-platform game on Steam (with Unreal Tournament being the exception thanks to it's awesome EULA).

Actually, it looks like the workaround that works for Defcon will work for Multiwinia too. Here is hoping that is the case, because I couldn't afford $20 shipping.
