I've noticed that several of the local B&N stores are carrying less
computer and tech books. I don't know about the Cary store. But the
computer book section in the Triangle Town Center store seems to be
shrinking.

Last time I visited, the best local stores in my regular book store
rotation were the two Borders on Six Forks Rd.  I think that the
northern one near Strickland was marginally better.
