    Excerpt - CompUSA Inc. said it has been sold to Gordon Brothers Group, a restructuring firm that will wind-down the retailer's operations and sell off its assets. Financial terms were not disclosed. Dallas-based CompUSA, which is controlled by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim Helu, said its 103 retail stores will remain open and staffed during the holiday season as it works to sell off some stores and its Internet operations.
