CompUSA to Close All Stores

Slashdot: “Mexican telephone and retail magnate Carlos Slim, in a rare defeat,
will exit the U.S. consumer electronics market, shutting the last 100
CompUSA Inc. stores after sinking about $2 billion into the business.
Gordon Brothers Group, a Boston-based retail store liquidator, will
oversee a piecemeal sale of the Dallas-based business, the company said
in a statement. Financial terms were not disclosed. Stores will remain
open through year-end under the supervision of Gordon Brothers, which
will also negotiate the sale of real estate and other assets.”
