I remember when Egghead first appeared as a store on Long Island in the mid-80s, and it was a delight to have them as an alternative to Computerland or 47th St. Photo.
They eventually overexpanded nationally, and were pretty much killed by on line sales.
But - I would never be so immature as to say I "hated" them. They served a purpose and filled a need, especially in the 1984-1992 era.
