Dec. 9th, 2007 01:08 pmThe final 100 stores will be closed after the holiday season.
Personally, I found their stores OK for browsing in, but I rarely bought things there. They sometimes had good discounts on computer books, but that was about it. They always sort of felt like an expanded version of Best Buy's computer department, but still no where near as good as Fry's Electronics.

Got myself an on-sale phone/ear-piece Bluetooth, nice and cheap!
