We have a food specialty store, A Southern Season (www.southernseason.com) that expanded to the web and their online store is now 50% of their business. In any case, their year-end pre-inventory sales can't be beat for goodies, coffee, dinnerware, cooking gadgets, etc.
Um - that is, for those who actually cook! < g >

I dont think its just the computer hardware industry. As an example amazon in the UK was allowed to continue business making a loss and undercutting local book shops. Many bookshops have now gone because the costs of running shops in the UK is killing them.
