I'm surprised no one is hosting funerals/wakes. Unless you're over 40 and from the West Coast, you probably can't understand how amazing Fry's was before, say, 2005. Fry's was my Disneyland. They had everything I wanted and more. Computers, Software, TVs, high end audio with demo rooms, car audio, electronics components, tools, test equipment, tech toys, geek culture, a well stocked music section, furniture, etc... I think I first went to Fry's in the mid 90's in LA. The Anaheim store had a mock up of the Space Shuttle's flight deck. It was so cool! Sure, they went down the tubes. Even 20 years ago, you had to watch out for restocked merchandise. But in their heyday it was a magical wonderland for young geeks like me.
