If so can you give me a few pointers.
What spec do you have?
What distro do you use?
Which emulator, if any, you use?
What problems, if any, have you had?
I am seriously considering swapping so if you got any other advice that would be great.

What spec do you have?
-> AMD64 3000+ @2.6OC'ed (watercooled)
-> Fatal1ty A8N SLI Nforce4 Mainboard
-> Geforce 7800GT (The second is in the mail for SLI)
-> 3GB RAM
-> 300GB HDD
-> 600w PSU
What distro do you use?
-> I used SUSE 9.3
Which emulator, if any, you use?
-> I used Cedega
What problems, if any, have you had?
-> Well I tried playing WOW on what I just showed you and it ran as if it was running off of an apple II. No matter what I tried I couldn't for the life of me get it to run smooth or stable. There was also a bug were you can't select anything and you have to go into some config file and fix that.
-> I tried the same thing you are thinking about trying and unfortunatley came threw with very bad results. i mean, using Linux for anything other than games is top notch desktop wise. But then you want to play a windows game and you can't. You will sure as hell try. It may work, but most likely will be as unstable as an alpha version of the game you are trying to play.
