The version of WoW that was mass-duplicated onto DVDs was 3.0. In the time since the duplication started but before the game hit store shelves, Blizzard released 3.0.2 and 3.0.3. If you've been playing WoW at all in the last few weeks, you should have already had those versions installed, but since the on-disc version overwrites them, they need to be re-installed.

At least you didn't need to re-download the patches (unless you manually deleted them).

Damn, so I guess there will be no playing for me tonight if there are multiple patches to download. At least I have to install onto my laptop AND desktop...
It only took me about 15 minutes to install the expansion, upgrade my account, and re-install the two latest patches.
