Given its effect on the US market, it's hardly a surprise
to see the European launch of World of Warcraft crushing a number of regional records. 280,000 units sold on
opening day (Feb. 11th), 380,000+ by the end of the weekend. Add to that, 290,000+ accounts created, 180,000+
concurrent users, and 80+ servers in use! Yeah, talk about putting the "WOW" in WoW, huh? Right? That
was funny, right? Er, maybe not…
