That ML shopping site is TOTALLY absurb. So they believe in the amazon business plan after all? Henry's probably in charge - or maybe it was his idea. I think this seriously hurts whatever professional image (?) that they had. They've really lost it. If DLJDirect starts selling junk, I'm out of there.

Benkea, I thought you might enjoy this also. Bet they will be dumping it like mad tomorrow. October 28, 1999 23:34 Merrill analyst sees Tandy as Internet stock SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Merrill Lynch analyst Peter Caruso Thursday reiterated his buy rating on Radio Shack owner Tandy Corp. , citing it as one of the best traditional retailing sector stocks to benefit from the growth of the Internet. Tandy jumped $6.25 to $60.25 after Caruso talked about the stock in a conference call. The analyst said that while some computer retailers will be hurt by the Intenret, Tandy will benefit from increased buying of Internet devices like Palm Pilots, as well as from selling equipment bundled with Internet access. He said he expects Tandy to do a deal with either Microsoft Corp. or American Online Inc. soon to feature their Internet services at the retail store. "Tandy is one of the few retailers that can leverage the value of its physical structure as an asset," Caruso said. Other computer retailers, particularly CompUSA , are feeling the heat of online sales by Dell Computer Corp. , but Tandy is well positioned to benefit from the growth of non-PC devices that connect to the Internet. He said Best Buy and Circuit City will also benefit from a transition to new computer devices by reducing their exposure to volatile PC sales and selling an increased number of consumer electronics and Internet devices. Circuit City gained $3.94 to $42 and Best Buy rose $3.25 to $54, but CompUSA dropped 12 cents to $5.78
