Dell’s Second Life
The virtual world of Linden Lab‘s Second Life is indeed getting a lot of attention, not only from those people who wish to escape life’s mundane happenings, but they are also catching the eye of big time companies. Endemol‘s Big Brother is already housed in the game, Reuters is in, and so are Sony, IBM, and GM. And now Dell has tossed its hat into the Second Life craze. Here are some screenshots of Dell’s Second Life taken before the start of the company’s press conference announcing its entry to the virtual world.
Dell Island visitors can even past the time away in one of the island’s drafting tables to configure their XPS 1710 notebooks, which your avatars can buy and use in the virtual world; that made us wonder if Dell’s battery exploding saga will be given room in the virtual world. In the future, Dell wants to let residents purchase real PCs that they could use in real life.
