	The Seattle Times: Business & Technology: Ace Hardware thinks outside the big boxes
		While mega-retailers Home Depot and Lowe's are expected to report about $140 billion in 2006 sales between them next month, Ace appears to have outperformed the two leviathans in same-store sales growth for the fourth year in the past five.
		Ace has been looking out for individual entrepreneurs since its founding in 1924, when four Chicago-area hardware store owners united to increase buying power and profits.
		Ace is not the place for the lowest prices or the biggest assortment of home-improvement goods; the big boxes have it beaten in those categories.
