[Tfug] CompUSA to close after the holidays

[Sean Warburton]

CompUSA...these were the guys who took all thier tenured guys and fired
them, saying they can rehire them at the new hire rate? Because they were
paying them too much, basically. Hmmm, no surprise they are going down. But
I guess this is an ugly side of capitalism. Thanks for the post, though.
