At the mo I usually run all 5 clients on 1 pc (Pala on main screen and 4 shammys on right screen) and have joannas leveling guide up on the left screen which is hooked into the second pc. My next purchase is definately a X-keys Professional because Im terrible at remembering which keys are bound to what :).

whats wrong with alienware laptops are teh seksi

I've had real bad experience with an alienware laptop. Spent over $5000 on one and had it into the shop 5 times in one year. Several times they kept it for over a month and once they say they fixed it and returned it with the same problems.

It's just not practical to cram that much power into a laptop. All the heat just fries things over time and I use my PC's 16+ hours a day so it got whooped.

Yeh I bought an Alienware pc just before Christmas as Ive got really out of touch with the hardware side of pc's. I last built a pc in 2000 so I wasnt confident to buy my own parts and put it together myself. After reading a lot of reviews and stuff on websites I figured Alienware was a safe bet for a well built machine.

The spec's are:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512mb X2
2GB DDR2 Ram

Bit of a middle of the road system, I have taken a bit of stick from friends for not going for an Intel quad core system. As far as running 5 copies of wow on minimum settings though Ive not had any problems so far, usually around 40fps on each copy. Its a bit laggy in Org if its busy but as long as I keep an eye on everyone and make sure nobody gets left behind its not so bad. My plans are to go the hardware route this year and buy some more pc's. That does rely on me pulling myself away from wow long enough to do some work tho -.-
