When I think what I want Radio Shack to be, it’s a hobbyist’s electronics store. It’s a place where I should be able to find resistors, breadboards, accessories for Raspberry Pi’s & Arduinos.
Unfortunately the past decade turned the store into another consumer electronics store hocking mobile phones, headphones, and Bluetooth speakers. It needs to fundamentally resolve its identity crisis.
