Well, your report of RadioShack’s death is premature.  They went through a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding,  They emerged from Chapter 11 three months after filing, which is VERY fast by bankruptcy court standards. The network of stores was rationalized, with about half being closed, but 1400 remain open. I don’t count on RS very much for component supply, but there are still three RS stores within five miles of my house, versus 6 a year ago. 

We’ll know that they are truly about to “go tits up” if the parent company files for Chapter 11 a second time (or, as the joke goes among bankruptcy lawyers, “Chapter 22.”)
