I was wondering if WOW was compatable with ubuntu?
edit: this thread was actually posted by my nephew, I will post his user name as soon as he gets home and makes one, he has gone to install ubuntu on his laptop now.
I hope this was not inappropriate!

Check in the Wine forum and do a search for World of Warcraft -- many threads should come up, including a how-to on getting it installed and configured.
Short answer -- it should work fine using Wine as long as you have a decent graphics card (nvidia or ATi).

An excellent point.
Ubuntu must recognize that you have a 3D graphics card. Otherwise, WINE will flip when trying to run.
At the worst, you can set aside a small partition for a Windows XP dual boot.
