AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 22 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- WidowPC, the industry's leading gaming computer boutique, launched the world's first gaming computer designed especially for World of Warcraft players. The PC hardware and software is optimized to play World of Warcraft at the best possible performance and detail. The new machine sports a new form of intelligent networking technology that greatly reduces that amount of lag experienced by the player in World of Warcraft and other massively multiplayer online (MMO) games.

"Most of our engineering staff are World of Warcraft players and have been designing PC's for their friends," said WidowPC CEO Joshua McClure. "Our customers said we should offer an affordable machine that plays World of Warcraft exceptionally well. This new 'Killer NIC' online gaming accelerator allows us to design a great system for World of Warcraft players with $1,495 that will play World of Warcraft with the online performance of a much more expensive system." *(Photo Caption: The WidowPC WoW Online Gaming PC.)

This exceptional bang-for-the-buck stems from the gaming system being built around Bigfoot Networks' new "Killer NIC" online gaming network accelerator. The Killer has a built in processor, and this extra processing muscle gives online gamers a massive advantage against online opponents.

"WidowPC is giving gamers exactly what they want - a stellar gaming system at an affordable price that is specifically designed with online game performance in mind," says Bigfoot Networks' CEO Harlan Beverly. "Gamers are going to be blown away when they see how well this PC performs in World of Warcraft."
