look what vista exclusivity gets you…

seriously tho...is anyone surpried by this? really?

the bright shiny opportunity to close nearly half your retail stores.

how’s that new day working out for you there, compusa?

ironically, this also means the second prize winner of this year’s technology makeover from mothership is basically getting the shaft, since compusa’s business services group…

with its stellar reputation for competency, excellence & customer service

has an exclusive on the implementation of the runner-up makeover.

by the time the makeover stuff is actually awarded, the aforementioned compusa business services group might consist of 2 guys with a clipboard & a toothpick, both of which they share.

all i can say to compusa is…

welcome to the funcave!

  1. Looks like somebody finally turned in all those rebates. Seriously, what kind of deal is “Free $79 Netgear WGT624 Router w/ $99 Tech Installation fee?” And that business model didn’t work? Shocker…

    I guess the Apple store isn’t the only ones with fake ‘geniuses’ working there.

    BTW - that router is only $59 on Newegg & everywhere else (no stupid rebates needed either).
