That's what I run it on only with 768 MB RAM.

It runs fine other than the usual doggy spots like Ironforge and such.

I would definitely pack as much RAM into it as you can though.  RAM helps things run smoothly in OS X in general and I image with WoW in particular.

Re: WoW on ibook g4

I'm buying a new iBook (12 inch) this afternoon.  I'm gonna drop an extra 512mb of ram into it.  If I add WoW to my cart what can I expect the performance to be like?

Decent to Good, depending how you set the settings.

fyi, imho, iirc, etc. - no matter the amount of RAM in your rig, platform of rig, etc. (possibly exempting super machines) IF will always be laggy.

I am sure your setup(s) will be sufficient for enjoyable gameplay smile
