Carlos Slim is a "majority shareholder" which is an interesting observation. I wonder if that's why their prices have always been so darn high! Huh, it looks like you’re right.

Mr. Carlos Slim isn't giving anything away although I do believe he bought some of the One Child Per PC units. But business is business as far as he is concerned so no deep discounts unless they got a heck of a deal from a manufacturer which I doubt given Comp's usual prices before... they were going out of business. Bye.

So the 10% will take it down to about the normal retail price, and then the further discounts will kind of be icing on the cake. I just saw somewhere that the stores will likely be closing in mid-February, so they will surely space out the discount intervals. spock1982 wrote:
