Well, I finally moved over to a completely Linux laptop.  So far, it's pretty freaking sweet.  Once you get used to the "linux" way and get a little comfy with the command line, there's some incredible free and quality software out there. Here are some screenshots of WoW running in windowed mode:

The laptop has a pretty crappy video card, so I hope that I see larger performance on my desktop when I convert it over soon.  I also found WoW UI Updater (http://wuu.vagabonds.info/menu.php) which I'm running using a Python interpreter natively in Linux.  So far, so good :)
