My system:
AMD Athlon XP 2100+
1.5 Gigs of DDR-333 RAM
MSI GeForce 4 Ti4200 128 VRAM
Lots of ATA133 hard drives (760 gigs all together... one day I'll have a terrabyte...one day...)
The game chugs in certain spots, but most of the time it's livable at default settings (whatever they are, I haven't checked).
The worst places are in Stormwind with lots of people all dueling, jumping around, etc. It seems like the 1.5 gigs of RAM really helps, because everyone complains about the game getting slowly laggier, whereas I don't have this problem. The thing is, if the game had a memory leak (it most likely does), then my memory would run out more slowly than someone with, say, 256 megs of RAM.
As far as performance goes, it's poor when there's lots to display, and there's always LOTS to display.

"Yay! We did it!"
"Who are you?"
"Um, uh... just ... a guy." *flee*
