Your points are 100% valid, but I would love to see someone disrupt in this space. The words 'Radio Shack' are perfect. Just think about a Consumer Reports review that has a column for 'repairable by Radio Shack'. There is a competent tech at most stores on duty who will not rip you off. RS working out a spares deal with top manufacturers and saves them money by being the one stop shop. I can dream...

Great answer. I just thought that after deep study, some hunters could see signatures and patterns like WWII spymasters and their spies. The morse code listeners could detect the 'hand' and recognize different senders.
I guess optimizing compilers make complete decompilation back to high level language still impossible.

Since analyzing malware code is pretty much a code review, do you mentally or actually score the code quality as you process it? Do you find signatures or patterns that point to a particular programmer that you can track?

Here is my suggestion for revitalizing Radio Shack, take out the toys and satellite sales except at Christmas. Keep phones. Add repairs. Have a desk where people can bring their stuff to either be repaired on the spot for things like odd batteries (or that 20A replaceable fuse in my microwave that is only reachable by taking off the cover! Fuse from Radio Shack). Things you cannot repair go to the central repair facility with realistic expectations and delivery dates or some sort of exchange. Old people will love you, young people with broken shit will love you. Radio Shack will win. Save Radio Shack and become a senior VP!
