It will take a long time (I think) for them to figure out how to make a working emulated server for WoW Alpha, and when/if they do, beta will probably be out by then

it will have the same problem as EQ emulation: the servers required to host the world would have to be too good, and there would have to be too many of them to host a private server[network].

EQ took 1 high end server per zone, maybe 2 zones. Thats ridiculous.

Everquest is evil. Sucked about a year and a half out of my life. PLayed that game waaaaaaay too much.

its only an alpha and they cant make a working sandbox out of the maps they found in it
its just a client
so no it wont have the same prob the eq
