R.I.P CompUSA………….

As a I walked through the aisles in my neighborhood CompUSA, I actually got a little sad. Yes, the customer may have sucked (an Apple guy at one store call my decision to stay away from Macs “sad”) and their prices ill matched to the competition. But regardless, this was the place for me to go and get my geek on. Anything from video cards to IDE adapters where there for my grubby hands to hold them. This feeling of bliss is gone. Off to best buy, where I will get badgered into buying a video camera with a newly acquired Best Buy card every time I want to go checkout a random computer part. On the flip side, Best Buy does have a wall of TV’s. In the end, I’m still thankful that there is a place called Newegg because shopping there was the best anyway. What does get me down, is when I was in CompUSA, some of the employees wore all black. More jobs lost, more people in a bind now, the rich just got richer.
