    So I've decided that I want to try out Champions, but I'm going to play it on a mac. Can someone explain what I must buy/do? Do I just need to purchase a version of Windows, (XP or higher) and CO? Also If I already own XP can I install it on my mac too?

    It does not work on a mac. If it does, google is your friend.
     
    Sorry.

    You need to install a program on Mac(if its not already on it) called "boot camp", then you need to install Windows, once you do that you should be able to boot up windows and install the game.  Let us know how it runs, I hear boot camp can really run Windows very well.

    So I found my XP CD and downloaded it on my Macbook. I can now run it via bootcamp and I am currently downloaded the CO demo through Steam which I also downloaded. I'll keep you guys updated.

    @CaptainTryHard:  
    How'd it go? 
    I've just got my copy of Champions Online working on my mbp without the need for Bootcamp or anything like that. 
    I don't know how well it would work on a normal Macbook, but take a look at my latest blog entry if you're still interested.

    @Jazz: It worked pretty good, but I gave up on the game cause I got bored. Maybe I'll pick it up again if I ever get the money
