Don't get your hopes up. Fry's has a lot of stuff, but a lot of it is pretty low quality yet charge high quality prices for it. Also, you have to be on the lookout for the little white stickers that indicate somebody has returned it and they are now selling it as new. Additionally, when you have to get a CPU, memory, etc., you have to deal with the idiots they hire to work there. That is the numero uno reason I shop at Fry's ONLY in the event of an emergency. Otherwise, Newegg and Mwave get my business.

Enjoy the grand opening sales!

I look at the people knocking Fry's, and I will say that I have gotten a number of good deals (Onkyo Stereo for $299, printers, etc) and I know that if I need a bizarre cable or cord, I can find it there. I will say that I will miss Fry's when I head back to Raleigh - no Fry's in the Triangle (hint, hint, Randy if you are looking for your next location). The same things that are being said about Fry's could be said about CC or Best Buy, as well. I have shopped at the #1 CompUSA, #1 Best Buy, and #1 Circuit City in the country, and their service is no better than Fry's.

It is in existence. It is 1 mile from my house. It does say Fry's over the front door. It is in Downers Grove, IL.

it, it, it is real.
