CompUSA closing 126 U.S. stores

Computer retailer CompUSA is closing about half of its US stores as part of a major restructuring aimed at making the chain more profitable. Rochester looks like it will retain its CompUSA but some larger metro areas, like Atlanta, will be left with none. Computer retail is a tough business, with low margins and tough competition from other stores like Circuit City and even tougher competition from Internet vendors like Newegg. Is this the beginning of a trend?
