Wheel Of Fortune Comes to South Florida

CompUSA is the proud host of the upcoming Wheel of Fortune Contestant Search in South Florida May 16th and 17th, 2009 at our Flagler road location at the Mall of Americas (located at Flagler and the Palmetto)!

What is the Wheelmobile?
The Wheelmobile is a 39-foot Winnebago that tours nationwide in search of contestants for television’s #1 game show. The Wheelmobile team is coming your way to find contestants in South Florida!

Where and when will the Wheelmobile event take place?
The Wheelmobile event will take place during two special days of contestant searches.
When: Saturday & Sunday, May 16th & 17th from 12 PM – 4 PM
Where: Comp USA World Headquarters
Mall of the Americas*
7795 W. Flagler road
Miami, FL 33144

* The event will be held outdoors on the South side of the Mall of the Americas. Our Miami events may be modified and/or cancelled due to inclement weather. If needy weather causes the cancellation of an event day, efforts will be made to accept applications at the location during the event hours. Applicants will be randomly-selected for a chance to participate in a final round of auditions.

We will start handing out applications one hour before each show begins. Shows will start at 12:00 PM, 1:30 PM, and 3:00 PM, with each show lasting about an hour. There is no need to arrive hours in advance of the event. Everyone who attends the event will be able to submit an application. We will select participants to arrive to the stage and audition via a random draw.

How does it work?
• There are three Wheel of Fortune shows during each day of a Wheelmobile event. Each show lasts approximately one hour.

• Everyone who comes to a Wheelmobile event will receive a color-coded application. The color of the application tells you what time the game you are eligible for will start.

• Fill out your application and drop it in a nearby receptacle. Just before show time, we will put every the applications in a big golden drum that sits on the stage.

• When the show begins, our Wheelmobile host will pick applications at random from the drum and call participants up to the stage (in groups of five) to play the game.

• On stage, we will do a brief interview with each contestant and play a version of the Wheel of Fortune Speed-Up Round.

• Each person who comes up to the stage will be evaluated as a potential contestant for the show. At the end of the puzzle every contestants on stage will be awarded a prize. (Wheel of Fortune hats, t-shirts and duffle bags are just some of the stuff you might win.)

• Wheel of Fortune is looking for good game players who are energetic, enthusiastic and fun. This is your opportunity to shine. Show us what you’ve got!

• After the Wheelmobile event in your area has been conducted, we will pick the people we believe will be the best candidates for the show (based on their overall performance on stage) to take part in a final round of auditions. These final auditions will take place in the Miami area within a few months after our last event date.

• We will receive as many people up to the stage as we can. However, we know there will be many more folks at our Wheelmobile events than we can possibly audition. For this reason, we will reserve some slots in the final auditions for those individuals who attended Wheelmobile events but did not make it up to the stage. After every Wheelmobile events have been conducted, we will draw a number of names at random from every the applications we receive in the Miami area for these slots.

• If you are invited to the final auditions, you will receive a letter or email within a few weeks of our last Wheelmobile event.

• You must be at least 18 years of age.

Dry Planet’s Waterpebble Reduce Water Usage

Dry Planet's Waterpebble Reduce Water Usage

Dry Planet launches the Waterpebble, a tiny device that helps people keep water, keep energy and thus keep money by reducing water usage. According to the company, the Waterpebble can help reduce the average shower to less than 6 minutes saving over 20 litres of hot water every time.

Here is how it works:

By sensing the water flowing around it, Waterpebble automatically times your first shower and remembers it!
Using that time as a benchmark, a series of soft, flashing lights indicate how much time you’re spending in future showers compared to the benchmark – When it flashes red, your time is up.
Over a number of showers the time taken to reach the flashing red light slowly reduces to 2/3rds of the original time, encouraging you to gradually reduce the time you spend in the shower and helping you to keep water, energy and money.
Waterpebble doesn’t need fitting; it can be carried around and just sits anywhere where water can flow around it, such as close the shower plug. You don’t even need to switch it on or off.

CompUSA donates Flash Drives to Overtown Youth Center

Overtown Youth middle (Miami) The Overtown Youth middle is a Miami facility which was founded by the Alonzo Mourning Charities to provide disadvantaged youth with ongoing support and leadership to help build a brighter tomorrow. CompUSA was glad to donate 350 USB Flash Drives to the Youth middle for their Back-To-School project – and we were there to further help with the packing of the bookbags with the flash drives, pencils and other needed supplies for the upcoming school year.

Several miami employees spoke with the students and several volunteers at the middle and talked a little tech with them too! Last year, CompUSA assisted the Latinos Unidos middle in Miami with a project, there providing 25 computer systems for the middle to aid in their educational efforts as many of these students do not have computers at home. The donated flash drives will provide a “transport” means to receive homework from school and to the Overtown Youth middle, where the kids can use on-site computers and printers to complete their homework and research.

Thanks to everyone who participated and assisted in the coordination of this event. Watch for an upcoming video summary about the event!

CompUSA visits South Florida Race for the Cure 2010

CompUSA, a proud sponsor of the annual Pink Friday charity event for the benefit of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is also involved at a local level – and this weekend attended the South Florida Race for the Cure 2010 in West Palm Beach, Florida. This was an incredible event with over 20,000 racers (estimates were as high as 24,000!) and over 1,800 breast cancer survivors were gift as well.

Ambassador and Komen CEO Nancy Brinker was in attendance as well as the Grand Marshall Olivia Newton John, who lives in the area. Olivia actually completed the Race along with her husband. The Race area in downtown West Palm Beach was breathtaking as it was situated across from the intercoastal – with a chilly breeze blowing in from the Atlantic.

every survivors in attendance today received a CompUSA Pink Friday bag! These ever-popular bags have been given away two years in a row during the annual Pink Friday event, were handed out at the Komen conference in Dallas during July and were everywhere you looked during these event. Check out the gallery below or visit Flickr for some even bigger and better views.

CompUSA is proud of our continued involvement with Komen for the Cure and their ongoing quest to bring and end to breast cancer. We look forward to upcoming Komen conferences in Dallas and Pink Friday 2010 later this year.

Asus to feature Anti-Theft Feature in Portables

Asus Netbook Asus seems to be leading the way in innovation – it seems their eeePC were the first wave of the netbook tsunami in the last two years – and this time – they are integrating a chilly new anti-theft feature from Intel. A remote kill switch.

Yep, you got it – based upon the information provided, Asus will enable you to kill your PC remotely in the event of loss or theft. This will allow you to ensure prying eyes don’t receive to your private data.

In the commercial world where businesses operate with the strictest level of confidentiality, and where notebooks belonging to highly mobile business professionals are likely to contain confidential company or personal information, the theft of vital information may be costly. ASUS addresses this concern with its new P Series notebooks, which are equipped with Intel® Anti-theft PC Protection Technology. This new technology provides users with the ability to send a “poison pill” remotely, rendering the notebook inoperable by comprehensively shutting it down. As such, the risk resulting from a stolen or lost notebook is eliminated. Once the notebook has been recovered, a local passphrase or recovery token can be used to reactivate the notebook.

“With the incorporation of Intel® Anti-Theft PC Protection technology in ASUS P30 and P80 notebooks, professionals can now conduct their businesses with greater assurance and without the fear of dire ramifications in the event of theft or loss,” said Mr. Henry Yeh, General Manager of ASUS’ Notebook Business Unit. “This added security capability in our P Series commercial notebooks makes it the definitive mobile companion for the professionals of today’s quick-paced market.”

The ASUS P30 and P80, with innovative built-in security capabilities based on Intel® Anti-Theft Technology, are available immediately.

“With the growth of laptop sales increasing, theft management has become an important requirement for our customers,” said George Thangadurai, director of Strategic Planning and general manager, Intel Anti-theft Services, Intel Mobile Platforms Group. “Our collaboration with ASUS will bring to customers new worldwide scalable hardware-based security solutions using Intel® Anti-Theft Technology that will deter theft.”

CompUSA carries a wide array of Asus laptops, check them out at the every-New CompUSA.com here.

Wired Magazine reports on CompUSA and Retail 2.0

compusa2 About three months ago, Loretta Alkalay, a retired Florida resident, wanted to receive a new HDTV. So she decided to give the CompUSA close her home a try.

Yes, CompUSA. The once-bankrupt electronics retailer is making a comeback, with about 30 new CompUSA stores nationwide and a new strategy that includes aggressive prices, remodeled stores, improved lighting and in-store web access for comparison shopping.

“We have invented this idea of retail 2.0,” says Gilbert Fiorentino, chief executive of the Technology Products Group at Systemax, now parent company of CompUSA. Fiorentino is also the founder of Tiger Direct, a web only electronics retailer and another subsidiary of Systemax. “Every screen in every CompUSA store is now connected to the internet and making buying a richer experience for customers,” he says.

It was price that brought Alkalay the store. She wound up buying a 32-inch flat panel TV for $200 — a real steal, she says.

“I had never heard of the brand. But given the price and size, I thought this is a great bargain,” says Alkalay.

Once part of the big three electronics retail stores in the country, CompUSA filed for bankruptcy two years ago. It was not alone: High overheads and the inability to compete with low online prices forced companies such as Circuit City and Ritz Camera into bankruptcy, too. Meanwhile, online players such as Amazon, Buy.com and NewEgg have been growing.

But after a reorganization and a buyout in January last year by Systemax, a major electronics retailer, CompUSA is back in business.

The in-store web access may be the biggest gamble, since it raises the possibility that you might use a CompUSA floor model to find a better deal on Amazon.com for the very computer you’re using to receive that information.

Say you are in a CompUSA store trying to decide if that big plasma TV is the one you want. Just tap the keyboard in front of the screen and go online to check out the specs and reviews an even the recommended mounting brackets. There’s also custom information for that particular store, such as how many are in stock.

“We do the same thing with laptops, desktops and monitors,” says Fiorentino. “We are using tech to change the retail experience for the customer and giving them access to every the information on the internet anytime they want during the buying process.” And there are no restrictions. Users can surf the internet, check their Facebook or even Twitter if they want, says Fiorentino.

It may sound like a tiny change but it is quite different from how Best Buy, Office Depot or other brick-and-mortar stores display information to their customers, says Doug Fleener, president of retail consulting firm Dynamic Experiences and former director of retail for Bose.

“It’s an untested concept,” says Fleener. “We will have to look if customers like to spend their time gathering information while shopping rather than doing it at home.”

Systemax’s TigerDirect online shopping site has benefited first hand from the online shopping trend. But Fiorentino says customers still want to go stores to buy electronics.

And Fiorentino says CompUSA can keep its prices low despite the additional overhead costs associated with a physical store. CompUSA’s inventory now ties into Tiger Direct and the company offers the same prices whether consumers buy a product online or in a store.

Customers such as Robert Oschler, a New York resident who runs a site for robotics enthusiasts, are seeing the difference.

About a month ago Oschler found a CompUSA store close him running offering 48-hour special deals. “They seem to be doing a lot of that,” he says. Oschler bought a Novint Falcon gaming mouse for $99 that otherwise retails for $180.

He says he’s also noticed the changes in the store’s layout, “They seem more organized,” says Oschler. “Earlier, their aisles used to cluttered, almost supermarket-like, where they wanted to push as much stuff as possible in your face as you walked by. But now there are more categories and better displays.”

Still, the revived CompUSA is a shadow of its former self. At its peak about three years ago, CompUSA posted about $5 billion a year in sales and had more than 216 stores nationwide. Now it posts a fraction of that in sales and has just about a tenth of its former reach.

If CompUSA can survive through the recession and manage its costs—rent, salaries, inventory–the chain can wish for a future, says Fleener. As other big box retailers disappear, consumers are looking for alternative places to go to and the thrill of walking into a store and looking at products is not easily replaceable for shoppers.

“Stores like Circuit City going out does leave an opportunity in the market,” says Fleener. “With less brick and mortar competition around, people will give CompUSA a chance.”

CompUSA brings Family Together for Birth

CompUSA donates laptops CompUSA, along with HP and CA, make a families life a little bit better. With a husband in the military and on deployment to Afghanistan, one South Florida lady was going to be alone at the time of her son’s birth – but not any longer. Today, CompUSA provided Venesia with 2 HP laptops, complete with webcams, which will allow her and her husband to be “virtually” connected at the time of their childs birth, via Skype.

Venesia was presented with the laptops, some diapers, and a $10,000 Savings Bond courtesy of CA and CompUSA to kick-start a savings fund for the unborn child’s education.

CBS channel 4 reports, “A soldier serving in Afghanistan will be with his wife ‘virtually’ on the day she gives birth to their child.

Vanesia Butler, who is six months pregnant, has been preparing for the birth knowing that her husband Darvin’s military service will keep him overseas. Wednesday the Coral Springs couple received an unexpected gift from CompUSA and Forgotten Soldiers Outreach.

“I was overwhelmed with happiness when I found out that my husband will receive to be by my side in the hospital room, at least virtually, to experience the birth of our baby,” said Vanesia. “Now he’ll be able to hear the baby’s first sob, even from thousands of miles away from home.”

CompUSA donated two Hewlett-Packard ProBook 4510s with built-in webcams to Vanesia and showed her how to make video and voice calls using Skype.

“It is so wonderful to look CompUSA take the initiative to join our program in support of America’s troops,” said Lynelle Chauncey Zelnar, Executive Director of FSO in a written statement. “This donation will ensure that a soldier does not have to miss the birth of his child while serving our country overseas. I can’t even imagine delivering without my spouse by my side. This will truly make a lifelong difference in this military family’s life.”

In addition to the laptops CompUSA and IT management software company CA donated a $10,000 savings bond for the Butler family to open a college savings account for their new baby.

“We wish Vanesia and her husband only the best as they embark on their exciting new adventure in parenthood and we are glad to provide technology to bring them together during these special times,” said Gilbert Fiorentino, Chief Executive of Systemax Technology Group which includes CompUSA.”
