CompUSA and J&R Computer World are the bigger retailers in the city.
http://www.compusa.com/locations/ http://www.jandr.com/Templates/Information/directions.tem Their pricing is usually higher than the online retailers but you can go there and take a look at the products. There are many smaller retailers in the city but their quality, service and legitimacy of product varies greatly so I would be hesitant to tell someone who didn't know their stuff to go to the parts guys on the 4th floor of that building on 23rd street, for example. For what its worth, I rarely want to actually see computer parts before buying and usually order them online. | Larry Velez | Sinu, Inc. | -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Terry Ewing Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 1:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [nycwireless] Where to get it in NYC... But this is NYC. Sometimes I want to take a cab somewhere, try on some Peacoats, check the sizing and quality, and walk out with a coat. The same is tue with computerish gear. Maybe I lived in Sacramento for too long but I'm spoiled. If I want a hard drive I just went to Fry's and touched the display models, read the specs, and left with a drive.. If I wanted some funky capacitors or such I'd go toto HSC and troll the isles. It can't be true that Sacramento has this but NYC deosn't. My biggest problem with NYC is the ability to find stuff. Once I find a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows where to go I'm happy. Finding stuff is half the battle. -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
