[TrunkCom] Radio Shacks Quits?

I was told just this morning by a questionable source that Radio Shack is throwing in the towel. Has anyone else heard this?

For what they pay their employees, it's amazing they can get high school
grads, and your expecting more?
Also, RS HQ does not even know the answers to or even understand the
technical info being discussed here.
The home office "experts" are no more (and maybe less) qualified than (with
a few exceptions) the sale clerks. They do try to provide some basic
training for the sales staff, but communications equipment is not one of the
subjects, as you can see.
