Circuit City is Closing, Liquidating

I'm shocked that Congress isn't bailing them out!? Why not send a couple of hundred billion their way and save 34,000 jobs? If we do it for banks, investment houses, car companies, insurance companies, etc, why not help the morons that ran CC into the ground? Lord knows you and I don't need the money and BB is doing just fine, thank you. Looks like Motorola isn't doing to well either. And Northern Telecom just filed for bankruptcy (sure they're a Canadian company, but I feel really bad for them 'cause they are out of jobs, it's cold up there, and they have to speak French).

"Have any posters in this thread bought televisions within the last three years?"

On a more serious note and significantly smaller monetary scale, yes, I bought two TVs from CC. One 50" Plasma 2 years ago and a 52" LCD this past Thanksgiving. Both purchased online from CC. Everything went great: price, delivery, old haul-away. No issues at all with either set. My family loves them (I rarely watch either).
