I go into CPU sometimes to touch the merchandise as well...then I go home and order it online from someone else much cheaper !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't say to invest in any of these stocks, I was just making a comment about on-line shopping !!!!!

And I totally agree the competition and margins are brutal...don't tell me ONSL makes a profit shipping me a $5 pack of paper via UPS without charging me a shipping fee !!!!

But as long as they keep delivering it to my front door for free (no tax either), why should I fight the lines at the store for the right to pay 20% extra plus tax !!!!!!!!

For what it's worth, I think CPU is a good investment at current levels (and I bought a few shares)...but not without risk...

Jimbo.
