WarCraft Laptop

December 4, 2007

Dell’s new laptop is just for WarCraft players. ExtremeTech offers the basic stats:

Intel Core 2 Extreme X7900 CPU at 2.8GHz
2GB dual channel DDR-667 memory
2 x 200GB hard drives, set up as a 400GB RAID 0 array
2 x Nvidia 8700M GT GPUs in SLI configuration (each with 512MB of video memory)
AGEIA PhysX 100M physics processor
Integrated HD audio with Creative Labs Audigy software stack
Intel 802.11 a/g/n wireless networking plus integrated gigabit Ethernet for wired connections
Windows Vista Ultimate Edition preinstalled

More importantly for WoW fans, the laptop comes with World Of WarCraft, and the expansion Burning Crusade, along with other WoW spinoffs like a DVD, Azeroth novels and a soundtrack. The laptop itself is customizable for Alliance or Horde. The kayboard is WoW-friendly, and it offers some pretty WarCraft backgrounds (in case you can’t download one or use your own screenshot).

And it includes (from ExtremeTech again):

You also get something called a “Quest Envelope.” This includes a Blizzard beta key card with five keys that can be used in upcoming WoW betas, plus an upgrade certificate that upgrades accounts to the “Collector’s Edition” level, and gives the player a special in-game pet.
