GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Put CompUSA computer-retail history on display with this vanity license plate. The design celebrates the chain that evolved from Soft Warehouse in Addison, Texas, into a nationwide big-box technology destination. It recalls the years when shoppers visited CompUSA for PCs, software, electronics, services, and later CompUSA.com. A standout for a garage, office, game room, workshop, or collector wall, it recognizes a familiar name from the personal-computer boom.
CompUSA began as Soft Warehouse, founded in 1984 in Addison, Texas, by Errol Jacobson and Mike Henochowicz. Its first superstore opened on Marsh Lane and Belt Line Road in 1986, and national expansion began with an Atlanta megastore in 1988. Renamed CompUSA in 1991, the company became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange and developed into a nationwide big-box retailer of computers, electronics, technology products, and services. It launched CompUSA.com retail sales in 1996, partnered with Apple Computer on in-store Macintosh departments in 1997, and acquired Tandy's Computer City in 1998. CompUSA acquired Good Guys in 2003 and later used the "CompUSA with Good Guys Inside" name in California and Hawaii. Store closures began in 2006. Specialty Equity acquired the company in December 2007, and Systemax purchased the brand, e-commerce business, technical services, and 16 locations in January 2008. In 2012, Systemax consolidated CompUSA and Circuit City storefronts under TigerDirect.
