I sure miss Radio Shack.
By the time it went under Radio Shack wasn't Radio Shack anymore. Not a p-box to be found, mostly other brands of electronics ("Realistic", anyone?). No more computers, just other people's cell phones. "Batteries and Bulbs" took what should have been theirs.I think the "Battery of the Month" Club survived, but that's about it.

Wasn’t Realistic and Tandy RS’s house products?

the one day I really needed a resistor I remember calling batteries and bulbs, and mentioned they should really carry some common electronic parts, they told me there was a reason they survived and Radio Shack failed.
Apparently there are a few Radio Shacks still around, but I suspect they are just RSINOs
