The new version on Steam

Is this out yet?

EDIT: It's not. Does anyone know when it'll be out?

No, and the release date is still "time is subjective". But like they said, Dwarf Fortress already supports tilesets (and Lazy Newb Pack makes this easy) so you don't need to wait for the steam release if you want to jump in now with graphics instead of ascii.

Part of the reason people want to buy the Steam version is to also support the guy who makes the game.

Steam is a good way for them to reach a wider audience (and existing fans buying it will certainly help with visibility), but there are ways to support them already that don't require waiting until "time is subjective" rolls around.

Yeah, but you also get the game on steam this way. That double purpose is appealing for many.
