OS X Port
On April 9, 2013 a modern OS X port of the original game was released on the Mac App Store for free. It is faithful recreation of the original for modern systems (right down to the separate inventory windows) that includes the original manual and a link to http://pid.bungie.org/. Beyond that, it is exactly the same as the original.
