Farewell
I've opined on my sadness for the loss of our local CompUSA before, so I'll spare you any more unnecessary geekery. Suffice it to say, I'll hate to see it go even if it was only a shadow of its former self.
I was having lunch with my parents in Hoover today (the REAL Hoover, not the Nazi-like annex to Hoover off 280) so my dad and I decided to swing by one last time - tomorrow it closes for good. It was a really sorry scene. Cracked HDTVs, beat up laptops and junk accessories that were so worthless that even a geek like myself could find an excuse to buy them. Oh well. It was a great place to pick up relatively obscure parts once upon a time. RIP
