Ok, first, great community information here!

Second.

I am going to start 'multi-boxing' on my laptop. It is a Dell Precision 6300, 772mhz 3.5 gigs of ram, XP, Service pack 3, an Intel Core 2 Duo t9300 @2.5ghz.
I have no number pad. Is this good enough to run two side by side instances of wow on this comp?

Also, I am more interested in PVE than PVP.

Now to the questions.
1. What other hardware besides a mouse would I need? (if any)
2. I have the two wow accounts, any suggestion on server? (if any)
3. Class suggestions.
-I have an 80 DK tank in t7+, I have played a warrior since before tbc, but would like to get into something different than melee dps.
4. Macro's for just two characters, seem pretty easy to set up, any useful hints?
5. Besides the Keyclone from this site, any other suggestions for addons/mods?
6. Keybindings, how important are they and anyone have a guide for them?

Thanks in advance!

Now to the questions.
1. What other hardware besides a mouse would I need? (if any) Computer. jk. None.
2. I have the two wow accounts, any suggestion on server? (if any) Any. or query the threads. there's lots of "what server are you on?" threads.
3. Class suggestions. two ranged dps is a good start.-I have an 80 DK tank in t7+, I have played a warrior since before tbc, but would like to get into something different than melee dps.
4. Macro's for just two characters, seem pretty easy to set up, any useful hints? There's stickies and a wiki. plenty in there.
5. Besides the Keyclone from this site, any other suggestions for addons/mods? More info in the wiki.
6. Keybindings, how important are they and anyone have a guide for them? Very important. How to keybind? Esc > Keybinding. or download a button addon and use their keybinding feature. you shouldnt need a guide for that.

Thanks in advance! you're welcome answers in red.
