I recall a UP story a couple of weeks ago that stated RS had 50 million
profit off of over 1 billion in sales. So they are selling a hell of a lot
but barely staying in the black. 1/2 of 1 percent profit? Even a passbook
savings acct gets a better return than that.

50 x10^6 / 10^9 * 100% = 5% - that's not so bad
