I don't mean for books. There are still many options for buying books.
I mean all kinds of other stuff that Amazon sells that are not readily
available at local stores. Most recently I was looking to buy
biodegradable garbage bags. In the past I have got these and various
other stuff regularly from Amazon, but these days I don't feel so good
buying anything from them.

And if you are looking for proof that Amazon treats its warehouse
workers like shit, there have been a spate of recent news articles.
See e.g.:
http://articles.mcall.com/2011-09-18/news/mc-allentown-amazon-complaints-20110917_1_warehouse-workers-heat-stress-brutal-heat

Finally I have no idea what you mean about making your own CPUs - I
don't see the relevance.
