[CoLoCo] WoW (Was: FFXI Finally Works on WINE)

[TJ Heaney]

Just out of curiosity,

How many WoW players do we have here?

I've got WoW and Burning Crusade running great on my 8.04 system. Only
problem I have encountered is when I minimize or alt-tab, it buggers the
screen. Any lag I get seems to be server-side lately though.

Any suggestions to optimize my speed would be awesome.

And of course, since I am a geek like that, I'm on Shadow Council. Toon is
Vaashti - Undead.
