Blizzard hits Europe hard - WoW sets records

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...
