I went to the Plano tx location this month and it was incredibly depressing. Felt like a ghost town. It looks like they've stopped restocking everything, so it's felt pretty useless to go in person since anything I've needed they don't have in stock. Sound rooms to listen to different speakers in the back completely gutted, only cheap netbooks in the laptop section. None of the tablets I was interested in on display to try out in person. No motherboards as far as I saw. Entire isles 90% empty. Nothing even in the center big isle walking spaces to grab your attention and make going there to walk around and browse for fun worth it.
Was really sad because I grew up going to this store and it played a big role in my interest in tech. As a kid it felt like a technology mecca, I could easily spend hours wandering the store with my dad. It's where my dad and I bought everything to build our first PC.
