yes, mine has similar specs and I 5 box on it

Sweet I might just 5 box on one comp or I could possibly do 4 on that one and 1 on my current laptop? That would be possible as well?



Also I know this is probably a dumb question but I already have 2 accounts (friend gave me his). If I wanted to 5 box it would I have to buy 3 more games? or could I just create accounts?

NO. You'll have to buy *4* more WoW copies/battlechests (for the accounts) to 5-box. You'll get reported for multiboxing (which is legal, even though so many people think it isn't), then a GM will check all the accounts playing together. They'll see simulatneous actions that can only occur from one person controlling multiple instances of WoW. Once they see this, they'll look at the account names - if they don't ALL match, expect to get banned for account sharing. A friend can't "GIVE" you something he doesn't own. None of us own our WoW accounts - we license them for our own use from Bliz, and they're very strict about enforcing this with multiboxers since it's so easy to spot.

Are you refering to the name on the account not the actual account name?

Cause you have to have a different account name on all of them but if my first name and last name is on all the accounts it should be ok?

Could I put all 5 screens on my one laptop monitor if the screen is 20 inch?

For multiboxing, all accounts must have the same first and last name or you risk getting banned for account sharing. To be safe, all info (address, phone number, etc) should be identical.

Obviously, you can't have the same account name for multiple accounts!

You *can*, but will it even be playable with everything so small? Test it and see..

[Gares]

I guess I should try it and see....I guess I might be able to hook my PC's monitor up to my laptop as well?



That is possible isn't it? I know I have the port for it but I'm not sure if I can use it as a second screeen.

Most of the time, laptops are able to clone views bot not utilise their screen as a span over the additional port. The only way to check this is to try it of course, but alternatively, you do not need all 5 screens up at once. If you keep your main screen as a maximised view, and the other four using maximiser to take up 1/4 of the screen each (in case you need to view with them) but behind the main view, you should be fine as long as you have good mods set up through the main screen. I would avoid collection quests in this manner, or you will spend a lot of time minimising and restoring the main screen.
