If I want something I will usually buy it at Best Buy, even if it's more expensive. Maybe I'm just easily amused but I like going out, grabbing something, and bringing it home. Plus, I hate waiting.

What is also hurting is that there is no "must have" new technology. Everyone has an MP3 player and the new ones aren't "must have".

Unless you are encoding video, a computer from 4 years ago is just as fast as one bought today.

Even poor people have flat screen TV's in their houses now.

The only new cool thing is smart phones and people get most of those through their existing carriers.

So an economic slowdown and no "must have" items is not good for sale.
