A little while ago, The Motley Fool printed an interesting analysis of Borders and their Waldenbooks chain. It claims that “Walden hasn’t done anything right since Henry David Thoreau died”, with their badly designed stores, whereas Borders’ superstores have a much better atmosphere for book-buying. The Fool is hoping that Borders can hang onto their superstore profits while realizing that Waldenbooks is suffering as much, if not more than, their Borders.com online venture, which they have put little marketing dollars into.
