RE:"If people want to wait for a computer they will call Gateway or Dell, the folks that want it now go to retailers. If the retailer doesn't have it, they go to another retailer."...

Not necessarily. Some people will order it if they can touch and feel it first. Would you rather order a PC without seeing a similar one first or just order it sight unseen? Especially since this can be a multi thousand dollar purchase. Also nice to have a place to bring it back to rather than a UPS office.
