Maybe it's just me, but I think a lot of the things that drew people to Best Buy at one point - powerful computers, big TVs, customized theater setups, rows of DVDs - have gradually gone from sexy to culturally irrelevant (still a profitable niche, quite possibly) in the last 15 years. They've become the workmanlike, unsexy appliance showfloors they put out of business by the early 00's.



Yeah, it's like, aside from layout, Walmart offers the same stuff.
