I agree - the chain as it currently stands is over. I don't even see any other company in a takeover bid for them. The name is damaged goods, and has been for a long time.

Then again; CompUSA was in a similar situation, and Tiger Direct has revived them from the dead, to the point where the Tiger name will be gone soon and will be replaced by CompUSA, so I guess anything is possible.
