This would indeed be a surprise. I bought all the parts for a computer system on 
Friday, September 20, at about 4:00 pm. The guy at the computer desk urged me to 
call if I had any problems putting the system together.

I also was shopping for some other parts and he said he expected them to arrive 
in about 4 or 5 days.

There was a notice on the door that new hours would be 8 to 5 (?) M-F and the 
store would not be open on Saturday. I don't know how old the sign was.

At 4:00 pm last Friday, I saw no indication by any employees that the store 
would be closing. Also, the place appeared to be as fully stocked as ever.
