Either the poster of that article is posting complete BS, is confusing the demo with the real game, or he has software that enables him to run Windows software. There is a software package out there for Macintosh systems that supposedly allows you to run Windows programs (similar to Wine for Linux), but I've never used it and wouldn't count on it to run games very well, if at all. Notice the reaction of the followup posters. They're just as baffled as we are. ;)
In short, no, a Windows executable will not function on a Mac natively.
virtual PC and other emulators allow you to do this, BUT THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL you could play Halo usually a windows emulator, mac gamers can't even use it to play counter-strike...with all the settings way down.
In short, the article was total BS.
