I'm probably to far down to be read by any sane person :) However to mount a windows partition in Ubuntu Hardy you just go "Places -> Network" hehe. couldn't be easier
If you read around the game some more you'll find Mythic has never claimed it to be a "WoW killer". Only thing Mark Jacobs has stated is "I want more subs than EQ (250k) at peak and less than WoW".
Unlike you, some people never played WoW or have totally had enough of it :P
