I thought I was on. It is kind of in my back yard.

When Fry's came up with that massive checkout queue I thought what a great solution... At the top there were 30-40 people in line and 10-15 people checking out and the lines moved like crazy. Seemed like they were printing money until they decided to buy a 747....

No longer the case.

I've been to the Sunnyvale Fry's and the Campbell Fry's in the last couple of weeks. Both times there were only 4 or 5 checkers (in a row of at least 20), and there was never more than one person in front of me. If I had waited 30 seconds, I would be surprised.

It's still difficult to find a sales person to ask a question.

Hellooooooo? Anybody home?

Fry's sunk themselves with the 30 minute lines to check out.

I was afraid of that.   Amazon is a real Fry's killer...   Almost like a
cruise missile takeout of Fry's customers...

There are at least 4 or 5 Fry's in the general vicinity. Closest would
be either Palo Alto (the cowboy place), or Sunnyvale (was the circuit
board place, but now is a 1920's art deco place). The last time I was
there, it was like a ghost town. I'm kind of wondering if they will be
closing up shop soon? Maybe they're doing all their orders online...

I was guessing he was making a joke..   BTW a stop at a Fry's
Electronics would be a hoot if they are still any good?

I would tentatively be a yes...

BTW - It's Mountain View. Mountain Home is about 200 miles east in
the Sierra foothills.

     I'd go to that for sure. I can't tell you the number of times I
     "was going to go down there", and something else came up. Just
     down the hill from here and just a couple blocks from one of our
NOCs.
