Blizzard Puts World of Warcraft Servers Up for Auction
Buy old server, give money to good cause.
Time stops for no man, or Orc. So, the time has come for Blizzard to decommission some of its World of Warcraft servers (or "realms") in Europe. It's not just chucking them down a dark abyss though, it's auctioning them off.
Says the worthy PR, "The old hardware has been carefully decommissioned and lovingly preserved in presentation cases, and the final batch of retired EU server blades are now available for bidding on eBay; this is the very final step in the charity auction that began in October. Net proceeds will be donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital."
St. Jude is a pediatric hospital and research facility where patients from Europe and around the world are cared for.
Fly! Fly like the wind for a good cause we urge you.
