    The Product, as described... really, not the Story. Older School Guy here, used to in-person shopping, and 'hated' the hassle. Online? Impersonal, though convenient, but the WAIT. Solution? Online Order, pickup local asap. The Best Buy purchase and subsequent pickup notification provided me to best utilize my schedule and time. Wow, it IS! about "Me" haha
