>>I think that commercial is what is holding down the price<< Actually I'm holding the rope and I won't let go. CPU is just a big fat blimp, easily seen, but full of hot air (check out the recent PRs). Remember the Hindenberg? ;) The low price-to-sales can either be looked at as a future opportunity or an ominous warning. Until I see what the new and revamped CompUSA will actually look like, I will stay away. We already know the current mix is not working. I am curious to see what products go and what is brought in to fill that space. My CompUSA now has the DVD movies back. Now each movie is in a plastic security case. They are the first DVD retailer I've seen to go to such measures. I guess the guard is not doing his/her job. I'd think those stick-on metallic tabs would do the job, but maybe thieves are pulling the disks out of the packaging. Buddy.
