After seeing the new expansion preview for WoW, I thought I might make an effort to get back into gaming since I quit for MoP due to transferring to a new college. The biggest concern for me is whether my current laptop can survive 25-mans. I don't believe my current system is quite up to par, but being a student (and a magic player), I'm working on a smaller budget than some gamers, so I'm not sure buying a new computer is going to be realistic for me. I was wondering if it would work to buy external support (hard drive/graphics card) to serve as an upgrade since I need to keep my current laptop for school (the tablet feature is a requirement for several classes).
