Oh I’m glad this popped up. I was trying to remember the details of a computer store I remembered visiting with my dad when I was maybe 4 or 5, ‘93-‘94, Chicago.
But as soon as I read it all came back and I’m certain this was it. I tried looking but couldn’t find out: does anyone know if there was an Egghead in Chicago at that time? Based on what I could discern about their stores is that seems likely there would have been one there.
When I was about 12 or 13, I was hanging out in my local Egghead so much playing Rebel Assault on the demo machine that the guy who worked there gave me a free mousepad just to leave the store.
