Last Tuesday, based on industry-insider information provided “on background,” we told you that this could be coming, and here it is: CompUSA announced Friday it will close all its stores after the Christmas shopping season. So to all you doubters, we offer a rousing, “nyah, nyah.” Rumor of the impending shutdown was also given to The Boy Genius Report via a leaked internal Best Buy memo.

Sales will be held over the holidays to try to offload inventory. Wonder if the deals will be just as crappy as when CompUSA did the liquidation dance earlier this year.
