Will It Blend?

It was for charity, so I hate everything about this a whole lot less.

If I was a millionaire, I'd have blended it.

Server Parts: Priced at Cost $1M
Discarded Server Parts: Book Value $500k (less depreciation)

*deduct $500k from taxes for depreciation*

Donation to Charity: $5k (sale price) server part (or skip last step) and deduct either depreciated value or original cost

*deduct either $5k, $495k, or $1M for charitable donation*

Buy new server parts from China: $500k

*deduct $500k as capital investment*

The numbers are arbitrary but the basic principle holds. Charity is a scam. It's why "the US having the highest corporate tax rate in the world" is hogwash and why other countries don't do this "charity" crap.

Part of a server.

The picture only shows the plaque that comes with it. Sounds like Blizzard had four per realm.

Blades are used to minimize space and energy, as well as make it easier/cheaper to fix/replace/add/exclude/customize.

So wait, they took their garbage, scribbled some shit on it, and then sold it for (presumably) hundreds of dollars?

Half the things that get signed are trash with writing on them. The other half tend to basically turn into trash once they're signed. Like baseballs, unless you're someone that likes batting away Babe Ruth's autographs.

I dunno what they sold for. Probably depends on the server.

The people who signed it had nothing to do w/ any specific server, don't know why they would bother. General wow memorabilia, sure. Specific server parts, who the fuck wants their name on it?

The developers of WoW / CEO's of Blizzard signed them.

I'd love to laugh at all the Bobby Kotick pictures, but I'm still ROFL-ing that someone thinks a server costs a million dollars.

I think Blizzard execs should try to literally sell their own feces.

I'm sure some fanboy or girl would buy it.
