Sorry to be the cynic, but the chances of the CompUSA in THIS town actually
having much of anything you want is pretty close to zero.  If it's a great
buy, they don't have it.  If they have it, the price is grossly inflated.

Their flyer a couple of weeks ago had a Umax 610S scsi scanner at a killer
price (with a rebate).  I went in, of course they didn't have any...
Couldn't even get a sales droid to come confirm that fact for me, just had
to keep searching all the shelves in that section myself.  What a lousy
store.  I go in there periodically, since it's right across the street from
my office, but I can say with some certainty that I don't buy very much
stuff in there.

Is that one from Obi Wan Stallman, or Yoda Raymond?
