As an ex-hardcore player I'm amazed at how easy it is to have fun in Cataclysm now without even raiding. And it's actually enjoyable treating heroic instances as I used to treat progress raids - reading up on a fight at a time, watching videos, working towards gear through points but with absolutely no obligation or time commitment. It's awesome - though the biggest change I've made is moving to the USA, where I absolutely cannot raid as the European guild I'm in raids during my workday. (And the latency).
