I rarely just quote someone else, but Ziff Davis says it better than I could.
Ok, this has got to be one of the wackiest ideas I've heard in a long time. Dell now plans on selling PCs inside the oh-so-hot virtual community Second Life. So how will this work? You spend virtual dollars on a virtual Dell PC that you put into your virtual house on your virtual island, inside a virtual world? Or do you buy a real computer with real dollars in a virtual world that, presumably, shows up in your real house? Either way, it's way out there. Read our story for the details.
Wacky? Good word.
I still don't get it....but I'm workin' on it.
