    I remember buying Windows 95 on release day at midnight at the Wilsonville OR Incredible Universe store. Then that space became a Fry's. And now it's going to be empty again. What will it be replaced by?

    When I moved to Indiana I was bummed that there was no micro center, but then I learned about fry's. Fry's didn't hold a candle to MC but it was better than nothing. Now that I'm back in michigan there's a MC about an hour from me.

    The cool thing about Fry’s were the electronics. It was a true electronics store. Not just computer parts.

    Fry's had been in pretty rough shape for the last year and a half. Late 2019 they switched to a consignment model and their current distributor dropped them. They were able to find a much smaller distributor but they were on a death spiral since then.

    Not like the pandemic helped, last time I went was in 2019 and I was super confused thinking I was in a store that just opened since there was no people and nothing on shelves.
