Ok, it’s official. Radio shack will soon carry The Printrbot Simple!!! Wooohooooo!

Brook Drumm is shaping up to be the next Bre Pettis. Well done!

I’m out.

Now if only we could bring the real Radio Shack back to Canada… Since selling out (it became “The Source”) is has become nothing more than a consumer electronics (ie: cell phones and TVs) store.

Props to @Brook_Drumm for making it big AND not compromising his principles and community in the process. A rare kickstarter success story. Crowdfunding done right.

@Alex_Wiebe that’s all Radio Shack is anywhere anymore.
Well, except, for evidently expanding the term ‘consumer electronics’ to include Printrbot Simple.

Great! Now I can get blank stares from Radio Shack employees when I ask questions about another product.

I get so sad every time I go into radio shack. I used to love that store, the people that worked there were generally enthusiasts and could help you. Now its a cell phone / toy store with batteries.
