Slightly OT: Favorite Computer Store?

David,

There is the traffic light just to the west of DeVry. In the business park
area. It is the store on the corner of the building. It has been there, at
least since 94. I believe it's called Tri Tech, not Diagonal. Don't quote
me.

I don't think DeVry has anything to w/ it other than sendin' students to it,
via the professors. I know the bookstore would have a student purchase the
electronic kits from them, but when you need a few components, the students
is sent there. Then again, times have changed and I have not been in the
store since '01.


Regards,
Darren
