Ack. Cut and pasted the wrong thing. I meant to ask if performance was decent in crowded areas. I can pick one of these old iMacs up for cheap and will do so if it's useable...

@meropealcyone FPS was not good at all in dalaran

@longhornandsouthern

all computers get old and obsolete anyway. I don't even use this imac any more. You can pick up an old intel imac for really cheap. I ended up buying a new mac mini which isnt expensive and it works great

@lucaslanddotcom looks like now it doesn't want to connect without an update...and no update w/o Intel, so the PowerPC guys are pretty much screwed as far as WoW goes.

@meropealcyone My G5 just bought the farm a few months ago.... logic board failure. Miss it.

@thejon128 you could still play at least the first 2 expansions. You could build up your toon to lvl 70 and stay there and make it a "twink". you would them dominate all the bg's in that lvl

[lucaslanddotcom]

@thejon128 doesn't surprise me. apple's new OS doesn't support it either. That's what happens when computers get old. Good thing I bought a new mac mini
