What's the biggest problem that CompUSA is facing? You may say that is the competitions from the direct sales of those PC makers. Is this true? Yes, it's partially true. Those direct sales draw those big buyers, mostly those small to middle sized companies, away from those store sellers, such as CompUSA. That's why ComputerCity had to close their doors. Will those competitions from the direct sales of PC makers continue? Yes, it will. However, I believe that PC is becoming a must-have for every family who used to buy electronics from a store in town. This will bring CompUSA $$$. As soon as PC-DTV becomes available, the profitability of CompUSA will improve. Do you think a company is willing to buy a PC-DTV for each employee? No, of course not! Do you think your parents are willing to pay $2000 for a new PC-DTV. Yes, it might happen if your neighbor bought one already. news.com
