A CompUSA insider tells us there’s a rumor floating around that CompUSA may be closing another 50 stores within 6 months. Like before, Gordon Brothers Liquidators would handle the pureeing.

Don’t rush out with a wheelbarrow. If they’re anything like the closings back in March, the deals will stink, you won’t be able to use rebates, the newspaper ads will be glossy hype, and the ghosts in the machines will shed sad ghost tears. — BEN POPKEN
