Yeah, I could see copies of OS/2 on the shelf, next to those pine shaped air 
fresheners, and the overpriced mini bottles of saline solution, down at the 
corner 7-11.

Regarding laws regulating hours of business:

There are many times that I work through the night, and need to stop
by a store to pick up supplies, or simply want to shop at night.  Many
regions in the US have few restrictions as to the hours of store
operation.  It is really neat to shop at 0300 in the morning (perhaps
because I worked too late.)  Of course, there are still areas where the
"blue laws" still restrict business hours.  In fact, here in Indiana,
our liquor stores still cannot be open during Sunday (except for the
early hours of the morning before closing at 0300.)

Now, if only the computer stores were open late at night, and early
in the morning.  I wouldn't be surpised if there aren't such stores
on the west coast though.
