Dammit - I'm getting sick of hearing this Fry's jabber - everyone says their prices are usually good, and somtimes great; and their service, from what I hear, is exemplary - if they sell you a 'bundle', they'll actually know it works, and either get it working for you, or take it back, without a restock, for credit on anything else!!

...and there isn't one within a hundred miles of me!! :cry:

Gave me an idea, though... If the banking situation wasn't so 'tight' for business loans these days, mightn't be a bad idea to think about opening a franchise, centrally between Green Bay, Madison, and Milwaukee - make a lot[i/] of people happy to actually be able to buy their stuff from a human being (well, a close facsimile, anyhow [:bilbat:2] ), face-to-face! I get really good service from NewEgg, but I can't just 'drop in' to pick up that adapter I didn't know I needed; and their prices, though pretty good, are often not exactly the lowest... !?! Hmmm...
