...hometown will be happy for my business, even if UIS wants to chase me away. I also would bet that any chain computer super store would fall over itself to take over management of UIS in an arrangement similar to the one between Barnes and Noble and the Coop.

A film-making student a few years ago built an elaborate backyard henhouse for a movie he was making, but fellow co-op residents, concerned about the animals, allowed them all to escape. The chickens and VES concentrator may be gone, but the graying wooden structure remains as an amusing testament...
