Would Best Buy do something like the Magnolia Home Theatres in their stores with Radioshacks, selling the radio component, and the little parts bin stuff? 'Mostly hypothetical' questions, since my dad has no say in what Best Buy buys, but the possibility is pretty cool from my standpoint.
But a real question, whatever happened to the name change to 'The Shack'?

Bestbuy getting into the sell would be great, I shop there than other electronics stores anyways lol. Plus it would get them in the market with another electronics store that also sells R/C and other Toys, Fry's Electronics. The 'Shack' is streaming on what they are carrying and upping items that can make them compete with the other electronic retailers. Change their image to the small goto electronics store than your small hole in the wall place for when you need a telephone wall jack
As for the name change well I guess progress is going but with the current economy and slow progress on getting back, don't think new signs a big priority, but more the revamping of stores and the way they compete in the market
