no Fry's in the Midwest, either. Best Buy is good for assembled stuff, but if I need, say, a new power supply, they have one option and it's the most expensive one on the market. CompUSA moved out of here last year when they pulled out of underperforming markets, but it left a rift for some types of stuff. Fortunately for me, there is a Microcenter reasonably near.
I think CompUSA diversified to the wrong markets - when you think "big screen TV" it certainly isn't the first place I'd think of, but they had a good selection of them. They should have targeted enthusiasts and not try to go head-to-head with Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.
