Looks like the end for CompUSA. Dang. Now there's nowhere local here =
to buy anything computer related besides Best Buy,
which is limited in some parts areas, and Staples which is even more =
limited. Guess it's all online ordering from here on out.

Also sucks since I have a 2 year replacement/service contract on my 24" =
display through CompUSA.

No in Co. Springs at least - there is probably something similar in Denver.
We have the normal local computer shops, but all are expensive, and hit or
miss on what you'll find - usually
it's dated gear.

I use Newegg mostly. Just nice to have a resource when I need to grab an
extra drive, cable, etc for quick use, without waiting for an order to come
in.
