Jeff, If sales were up 50% in units and prices were down 20%, shouldn't revenues be up 30%? I am going to have to dig into this one. But it was a disaster report on revenues and eps. MB

> CompUSA announced its sale results today. The total sale was up because of its merge with Computer City. The average store sale was down, even with 50% increase in computer unit sales.

Jeff, I'm not sure how to evaluate those figures. I was in a couple of those Circuit City stores shortly before they became CompUSA stores and they were shabby, dispirited sights to behold. I would be much more interested in figures that separated the ex-Circuit City stores from the CompUSA stores.
