The Radio Shack's in my area are pretty puny (which I've always found
surprising, being as I'm on the outskirts of DC). I've only ever seen
computer tool kits with a single T10 in them (if they have any Torx drivers
at all). And I thought about Sears, but I didn't feel like investing in the
30-45 minutes drive. So I let my electrons do the walking...
