Who Can Buy Circuit City AND Successfully Turn It Around?

Perhaps the CC real estate should be taken by MotorbikeMax, utilizing the concept of CarMax. With the economy crashing almost as fast as the dollar, Dow in bear market, jobs being cut, and fuel at $4.00, no one can afford an economical Japenese car. They have raised the prices on their Hondas and Toyotas several times this 2008 model year. I suppose that "if you want economy, its gonna cost ya", as a toyota salesman once told me.

Anyway, CC cannot compete with BB. Not today, not in a year. BB cuts them off at the high end with knowledgable store staff. CC's Firedog service is a joke. They installed a wireless system for my wife. After replacing wireless devices that were already there, they finally got it to work...one day. A gentleman from our IT department put the old equipment back on and the sytem works forever.

While BB cuts them off at the high end, Walmart destroys them at the low end. The CC model of "no knowledge" service is identical to W,- with triple the prices.

I see no hope for them, unless they can ....hmmm...I'd get my 2 bucks while its there.
