Interesting that Radio Shack is only changing their name and image now. They objected to Auto Shack's name in the late 80s forcing them to become AutoZone which really took off after the rebranding. It seems like they would have seen how well AutoZone did with a modern sounding name and done the same before now.

I don't think a modern sounding name would help revive Radio Shack. AutoZone would do fine with many names, because they carry products people want to buy. I can't think of anything I'd want to buy from Radio Shack, now that they don't carry electronic components any more.
