10.3.7 released
the update changes some graphic drivers, so hopefully it helps.

Mac OS X users that play Blizzard's World of Warcraft will be especially happy with this update -- Mac OS X 10.3.7 addresses three separate issues with the popular game.
First, the update addresses an issue with World of Warcraft in which the game's frame rate could drop considerably when in "Ghost mode," if the computer uses an Nvidia graphics card. Another issue with Nvidia graphics cards was also fixed where enabling Vertex Shaders in World of Warcraft could lead to unexpected graphics issues.
Owners of ATI's Radeon 9600 also received a fix in this update, addressing an issue with World of Warcraft in which incorrect colors or unexpectedly flashing objects could appear, making gameplay difficult.
too bad you guys don't get that special treatment.
I'm not on my mac, and can't test it, but it sounds good to me.

Anyone got some performance data pre- and post-update?
This is a 1GB 12" PowerBook. VO runs fine. No improvement. No slowdown either.
Sound like World of Warcraft got some special treatment :/ Oh well I have seen no improvement or slowdown with vendetta or the system, seems to have been a small fix update really.
