F**k me. What detail settings? That CANNOT be the same hardware. It just
can't (so I find myself saying in my head).

Well, this is my THIRD 24" iMac (first two were lemons and were returned
- no idea WTF Apple thinks they're up too with quality control nowadays)
and WoW has been **** on all three.

*massive sigh* :-(

I'm tempted to tell Apple I want my money back. You think I'd get
anywhere? I've noticed performance is **** in other apps as well. It's
not just WoW.
