	Egghead: Not Bright Enough
		Although Egghead would plan for years to bring the CUE card back, the reality was that it left its best customers out in the cold for no reason.
		He wrote, "Does Egghead think their customers are idiots?" He went on to say, "If you take care of your customers, they'll take care of you and your family for a long time in the form of repeat business." The subtext of this is that if you don't, you will end up in bankruptcy court.
		Egghead's business model of selling new, liquidated, and refurbished goods at super-low prices fell prey to reality when advertising and co-op marketing dollars failed to materialize in a significant fashion, just as for other Internet players.

	Egghead Information
		In the slang of the United States, egghead was an anti-intellectual epithet, directed at people considered too out-of-touch with ordinary people and too lacking in realism, common sense, virility, etc. on account of their intellectual interests.
		In his Pulitzer Prize-winning historical essay on American anti-intellectualism, historian Richard Hofstadter wrote: "During the campaign of 1952, the country seemed to be in need of some term to express that disdain for intellectuals which had by then become a self-conscious motif in American politics.
		The word egghead was originally used without invidious associations, but quickly assumed them, and acquired a much sharper tone than the traditional highbrow.

	Egghead to file for bankruptcy \| CNET News.com
		Egghead spokeswoman Joanne Hartzell said the company plans to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy later on Wednesday, and that it laid off about 180 employees as part of the move.
		Egghead's restructuring moves were the right way to go, but the company didn’t have enough capital to see them through, Sheahan told CNET News.com.
		Egghead's stock has closed consistently below $1 a share since February, prompting the Nasdaq to warn Egghead in April that its stock would be delisted if it was not able to maintain the $1 per-share minimum price.

	Egghead credit card hack: serious questions remain \| The Register
		We assured her that we'd been around long enough to know that we already had a story, as the glaring discrepancy between Egghead's reassuring press release, and the decidedly skittish behavior of a bank which issues Visa cards, is news in itself.
		Ironically, Egghead's Hartzell approached us last week proposing to "put an end to the disinformation regarding the attack on our systems in December," but, as events would have it, she only contributed to it in the end.
		Egghead is one of the few Web merchants which currently advises shoppers to supply the CVV2 value for added security, thus.

	SpiderFan.org - Characters : Egghead
		The scheme is much too convoluted to bother with but Egghead does manage to capture the Wasp and use her as bait for Ant-Man who he tries to defeat using an iguana and an anteater.
		In a 1990s retcon, it is revealed that Egghead first forms his Emissaries of Evil (composed of the Eel, the Rhino, the Porcupine, Solarr, the Swordsman, and Power Man I) to help him threaten New York City with a nuclear missile from the wilds of Canada.
		The woman turns out to be Egghead's niece Trixie Starr and she is resisting because her Uncle wants to subject her to his "hypno-kon", a machine that draws power from brainwaves even as it mind wipes its victim.

	Technology Review: Egghead Scrambles to Virtual Retailing
		Egghead was hemmed in by the smallness of its shops, which typically inventoried 2,000 different items or "stock-keeping units" (SKU) in the jargon of the trade-hardly enough to compete with the 5,000 SKUs available at nearby computer, office supply, or buying club superstores.
		Egghead was especially vulnerable because many of its leases were due for renewal 10 years after its greatest expansion, and the new rentals would have been prohibitive.
		Egghead was in the midst of a dismal period, losing money in 10 out of 12 quarters during 1995-98.

	Egghead - Don Markstein's Toonopedia
		Egghead was back four months later in Little Red Walking Hood, Avery's first (of many — the best-known is Red Hot Riding Hood) deconstruction of a classic children's story.
		Some modern scholars point to a few small differences in design (unabashedly bald, whereas Egghead wore a hairpiece, squint-eyed as opposed to Egghead's widely open eyes, and a few others), to support a contention that this is actually the first appearance of Elmer Fudd.
		Whoever he was, he was a very eccentric little guy — which may have been his downfall, as audiences seem to have found him too eccentric to relate to very closely.

	Bush the Egghead
		Older liberals still treasure the late Adlai Stevenson, the original egghead and the failed Democratic presidential candidate in 1952 and 1956.
		But with apologies to both sides, the case for Bush as an egghead is overwhelming.
		One of the central characteristics of the Bush presidency is a profound commitment to theoretical notions, nurtured in think tanks and ideological magazines, and a relentless -- yes, even principled -- commitment to pushing them regardless of the facts or the consequences.

	Egghead's Android (Giant-Man/Wasp foe)
		Egghead was able to control the android's weight, making it near weightless (to a point that it could float in the air), or increase its weight to maximum (where it was solid as a brick wall).
		By wearing a "beta-ray mental energy transmitter" headset, Egghead could take total control of the android and see everything that it saw, hear everything it heard, feel everything it felt, and could speak directly through the android, as well as direct its movements with his own thoughts.
		The experiment was a success, so Egghead then stole an ordinary manikin from a clothing store and applied a "special compound" to it to give it almost limitless strength.

		Either way, Egghead has made any deal conditional on the successful purchaser honoring its existing privacy policy, which includes the standard disclaimer that your personal information is not sold to anyone, even by third-parties that Egghead deals with to fulfill your orders.
		Well, this is kind of a sad demise for Egghead, which is dear to most Geeks' hearts who remember those heady days when Egghead brick-and-mortar stores were a very cool place to visit to see what the cutting edge of computing (hardware and software) would hold.
		When Egghead made the decision to go online only back in early '98 (check out our news item from then--yup, that's our old look), most people knew it was because the company wasn't doing well--very few bought into the Egghead hype that it was a strategic move to take advantage of the future.

		So on with the plot, tenuous as it is. Egghead has been on holiday and his house has been wrecked by aliens.
		The only improvement on Egghead - with hindsight - is that if after several levels a code was given so you could start straight away on level 8 (or whatever) and not have to repeat the first couple of levels again.
		Other than that, Egghead is a fine game and a refreshingly simple one to play compared to many of the contemporary games which make you worry about not finding all the 'hidden sub-quests' or memorising 8,000 different keystrokes.

		Founded in 1984, Egghead was a software "retail giant." At its peak it had about 250 stores, and although it was a privately held company that kept its books to itself, it was said to be a very profitable operation.
		The name changed from Egghead Software to Egghead.com, and the concept was no more of a sure thing than Amazon.com (nasdaq: AMZN - news - people) was.
		Norm Hullinger, Egghead vice president of sales and operations, argues that although consumers haven't embraced buying software on the Internet, the only way for the company to survive was to move online.
