Can it handle it

Basically I'm curious if this PC can handle WoW (World or Warcraft) easily.
I'll provide the games requirements and the PC specs.

Theres the PC.
I'll be upgrading to a 512mb graphics card in about a month.
So I'm curious if the 256mb onboard <b>Shared</b> will be enough for now.
If it can handle 3D etc.
It's a new PC with Vista.. so..

WoW Burning Crusade expansion req:
Minimum PC System Requirements

PC Processor Type- Intel® Pentium® III processor, AMD Athlon™ processor
PC Processor Speed- 800MHz
PC System Memory- 512MB RAM
PC Video- 32MB 3D hardware transform and lighting-capable video card
--------------------
Then Regular WoW req:
Minimum PC System Requirements

PC Processor Type- Intel® Pentium® III processor, AMD Athlon™ processor
PC Processor Speed- 800MHz
PC System Memory- 256MB RAM
PC Video- 32MB 3D video card with hardware T&L support

Will it play just fine until I get the new card?
The shared thing worries me..

Yes the onboard graphics should handle. Just make sure you have at least 512 ram for the game.
