Non-Tech : CompUSA (CPU) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

CompUSA has no choice but to use an Ingram

the redundant overhead for CPU having it's
own distribution is what is killing profits
and making them so overpriced. Since most
online resellers already use Ingram and the
like, the CPU distinction of having local
stores for customer service will help, but
that may be offset by consumers having to
pay local sales tax. Bottom line, it will
help CPU be more competative or more profit
able, but not both, IMHO.
