When I played I used to have 180+ addons installed (far too many for my old
machine, zoning, especially entering instances took ages). I was sure I
could not play without them :-)

Back with the last expansion (whose name I can't even recall without looking
it up) I came back for a month to see just what it was like and having been
gone for more than a year decided I'd try your approach: Started with zero
addons and found that the standard GUI had actually become quite usable for
casual play. Installed maybe 5-6 (that were updated or replaced older ones)
during the first few days, but mostly just went without.

One thing that kept me from was playing my resto-shammy, as I didn't bother
with the addons I found vital for that (button addon whose name escapes me
right now, bar plate addon, scrolling text addon and a few more), but
everything else, including 5-man instances was fine just with the basic UI
and a handful of addons for comfort (mostly small ones).

So if you're only coming back for a month, I'd suggest you try that instead
of wasting a lot of time getting an old setup to work.

Cheers
Urbin, who won't come back this time round
