    In #SoCal, the Federated Group's zany commercials were a hit, but the chain still eventually disappeared.

      These commercials were insane. Shadoe Stevens was inspirational.

      I remember going to Federated with a group of friends to look at the Commodore 64 soon after the price dropped to $99. The salesperson took one look at us and told us to come back when we had money.

      Jaime's friend (I think his name was Daniel) returned that week, bought a computer, and was thereafter too busy to associate with us.

      http://www.shadoe.com/ was the person who portrayed Fred Rated.
