The Week in Electronics Retail Crime
The latest instance of a customer bringing his computer to a store for repairs, leading to the discovery of child pornography and his arrest, took place at a Fry's Electronics in Arizona. According to a blog on Phoenix New Times website , Fry's employees found the pictures and notified police, who arrested the computer's 57-year-old owner. The loss of another iPhone prototype may be in the news, but a decision has been made about last year's version of the story. According to Gizmodo, San Mateo County (Calif.)'s district attorney has chosen to not press charges against that website after it purchased and reported on the pre-release prototype of the iPhone 4 in 2010. Gawker Media, the site's parent company, had bought the prototype after it was left in a Bay Area bar.Frys Electronics Open - News
Woods' decision to play at the Frys.com Open is not solely the doing of Butler. The largest component was probably the commitment of electronics retail poo-bah John Fry to implement first-class trappings on what is considered a second-tier PGA Tour

Despite this talk of getting out of the PC hardware business, the last time I went to Fry's Electronics, HP machines lined the shelves. There were few Dells and fewer Lenovos. HP controls the channel. Dell could do worse than pick up the entire HP

TIGER WOODS TO PLAY IN SILICON VALLEY'S FRYS.COM OPEN ...
Frys.com Open Tournament Director Ian Knight announced today that Tiger Woods has committed to the 2011 Frys.com Open, scheduled to be played at CordeValle, Oct. 5-9.
“Obviously, we are very excited Tiger has decided to play in our event,” said Kathy Kolder, Frys.com Open Tournament Chairperson and Executive Vice President of Fry’s Electronics. “The boost in marquee value he brings will not only help the tournament and increase the tournament’s economic impact in San Jose, but it will also help us raise more funds for participating charities.”
Woods, who says he is healthy for the first time in many months, wants to add competitive rounds in a PGA TOUR event. He also wants to continue to hone his new swing in a tournament environment now that Presidents Cup Captain Fred Couples recently named him to the U.S. Team for the November matches in Australia. Woods has not visited CordeValle; however, he is well aware that his fellow professionals gave the course favorable reviews last year. Additionally, his agent, Mark Steinberg, visited the Club during the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach last year.
Born in California, Woods is very familiar with the San Jose area, having attended Stanford where he played on the school’s golf team in 1995 and 1996. While at Stanford, Woods won the NCAA individual championship in 1996. As a professional he has experienced great success in the state of California, winning a total of 16 PGA TOUR events – the most recent being the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines where he defeated 2010 Frys.com Open defending champion Rocco Mediate in a 19-hole playoff.
Tournament President Duke Butler, a veteran of PGA TOUR business, has a long and respectful relationship with Woods and Steinberg. In recent years, Butler has introduced Steinberg to Fry’s Electronics, an electronics retailer with corporate headquarters located in San Jose, Calif. CEO John Fry and Kolder have a long term strategy to make the tournament prominent, possibly moving it to The Institute, a course Fry’s Electronics owns in Morgan Hill, Calif., no earlier than 2013.
