Hey Guys,

New to the scene, going to be running multiple instances of WoW on 1 PC, 1 22" Monitor (possibly 2 if it goes well) and just have a few questions:

1) I guess my first question is going 4 shamans really worth it over 3? The funds aren't a big deal, but at 70 I want to PvP alot, arenas hopefully and wondering if the 4 Is really worth it considering I can do 3v3 or 5v5.

2) 6GB of Ram, Quad Core Processor, 1 22" Monitor, Geforce 9800GX2 1gb Video card, is this enough to even run 4 instances of WoW? My thoughts are yes from what I've read, just wanted to make sure.

3) Is running the instances in Windowed mode possible or do all have to be open at once, 1 Main window almost full screened with 2-3 windowed.

Going to be running Tauren more than likely as Chain Warstomp in BG's / Arena is just too appealing, hoping someone could answer these questions for me.

Also, should I be investing into a new keyboard with more keys for macros?

Thanks all!!

Its possible I run four in windowed mode scaled down and lined up nicely with the main window maxed

Also, should I be investing into a new keyboard with more keys for macros? If you want, I use a standard laptop keyboard and thats more than enough for myself.

4 is king :D 3v3 is just not the same as 5v5...

I have 2GB of ram and dual core processor and I can run 5 NO PROBLEM whatsoever. You obviously can run more than 4.
