Blizzard auctions original WOW hardware for charity

World Of Warcraft publisher/developer Blizzard has announced a run of auctions to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a centre for the research and treatment of childhood diseases.

A press release issued by Blizzard outlines the details of the auctions: "In total, approximately 2,000 of the original server blades from about 500 different World Of Warcraft realms will be auctioned.

"The server blades will each be contained in a custom windowed case featuring the World Of Warcraft logo and offering a view of the computer hardware inside. They will also come with a commemorative plaque signed by the World Of Warcraft team, making each one a true collector’s item."

The auctions are set to take place over four weeks from October 17 on eBay. More details can be found on this eBay FAQ.
