They are the biggest screw-up of the internet age. Their catalog was Amazon to the 100th power, waiting to be digitized. All they had to do was hire one nerd. That's all. Just one. And listened to their very own nerd. They'd be billionaires & Bezos would still be selling books.
Imagine a Sears capsule docking with the ISS or rocketing to the Moon. It could have happened. Just one nerd.
