Running Half Life 2 and Gary's Mod on a Macbook, is this even possible?

Hey guys,
I have recently wanted to purchase Half Life 2 and Gary's Mod (looks like mega fun :smileyvery-happy:).
I was wondering is there anyway that i can run those programs on a Macbook (2.2 GHZ, 1gb ram) so that they will run ok?

the specs will run it assuming it has a decent gfx card, but the os won't.

You could run it in boot camp though.

Boot Camp was free when I downloaded it... And yes they will work. All your programs that require Windows run when your in Windows.

I'll also add that HL2 (and the orange box for that matter) run on Linux with WINE if you install it right.
