The problem with CPU? Rude clerks, slow service, and a bad return policy. I was at a CPU store and a guy bought a modem, took it home and found out it was a cable modem but he needed a standard phone modem. The clerk gave him a hard time and did not want to take it back because it was open! After calling the manager they were still hesitant but returned it!

That was it for me! I will never shop there again. I usually buy all my pc stuff at BBY (awesome stock) and I have taken stuff back up to one month later and never faced any problems. I did with when I tried 3 different 56k modems and none seem to be faster than my 28.8, so at the end I got my money back and guess what? BBY still has a loyal customer.

AJ, by watching the price action going into the close, it would look like CPU will pick up the weekend press and show up on many radar screens and move up next week. Maybe you might want to rethink you first plan.
