Seems i cant run obsi on my MacBook (dont judge me it was a good deal ) that im taking up for college..
So far i was able to create a partition to run Windows Vista on the Mac, but the drivers dont feel like working, including my ethernet and wireless drivers.. so i get no internet on my Windows partition. Anyone been able to do this? Any ideas would be good help. Im stumped

I hate Apple and only know enough about Mac as I have to, but I do know that Wine will work with a Mac. And if you can get Wine to work with a mac, you can get it to run Obsidian.
So, see this link http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX and if you successfully get Wine working, see my "Running Obsidian with Ubuntu Linux" guide that was made sticky in the help section here to get Obsidian going.
Good luck.

If you're having driver issues with Vista, might I suggest installing Windows XP in that partition instead?

I've achieved the near impossible! I tried the whole wine thing but i made a mess of it, so I ended up purchasing Parallels desktop. I can run all my windows vista stuff right next to all my Mac's apps. Yay. Quick and convenient, but it'll set you back 80 dollars. Considering theres alot i have to do with windows, its a worthy price. Just a heads up for anyone else wanting to run windows on their Mac, and play obsidian
P.S. The trackpad on a Mac records a two finger press as right clicking, so you click two fingers and slide. Or plug in a mouse
