$4,499 WOW Themed Laptop. Dell Says Yes!

Have you always wanted a laptop that has the same cartoonish style that WOW has brought to a PC near you. Well it looks like very soon you will be able to, and for the low low cost of $4,499.

What do you get for that kind of cash? Well we are glad you asked. You get a Dell XPS that is clad in a silver and black case emblazoned with a Alliance or Horde symbols... Oh, that is not all! You also get WOW pre-installed for you, you also get a certificate so that your account will be flagged with the "Collector's Edition" owner of the Burning Crusade. That is not all! You also get a WOW desktop background and a WOW screensaver. Two things I note missing, no WOW account, and no book on how to keep your friends from laughing their butts off.

Here is the teaser page from Dell

Forget that, it should come with a lot of gold and a code to make me what ever lever I want... I am not kidding, for $4500 I should have the option of someone playing the game for me.
