Should I make it a trio?

Lately, I've been playing with the idea of making my 2 box experiment with the blood elves into a 3 box experiment by adding my shaman into the mix. I just keep dreaming of what a powerful trio it would be! I would spec my shaman restoration and he would be a dedicated healer. Between paladin, mage & shaman, I would have the three primary roles of any group covered (tank, healer & dps).

Technically speaking, it wouldn't be that difficult to do. I have an older, but still adequate computer that could be used to run the 3rd account. I have an extra copy of the Burning Crusade collectors edition that I've never used (don't even ask me how that happened...lol). So I would just have to pick up an original WoW game, a 60 day game card & transfer my shaman over to the 3rd account. Here are my reservations: (1) If I do this, I really will not learn how to play a shaman properly. All he would be doing is casting healing wave and some supportive totems. As the 3rd character, I would not be able to dedicate much attention to him. (2) My shaman is only level 20 now, so I would have to put off leveling the blood elves for a while until he caught up to their level (they are level 48 right now). (3) Will 3 boxing just become too overwhelming?

I'm not sure what the answer is? In one respect, it will get me closer to my ultimate goal much faster as I would be working on 3 character classes at the same time. However, I am just worried that it would be too stressful and not much fun in the end.
