    hat's not really true. Just the other day I picked up a Timex Sinclair<

    hey end up putting that stuff on their auction site.<

    I think it depends on the store. I've
    yet to see anything computer related
    at my store.

    To which Drew Klenotic replies...

    That's the first computer I've seen there... but they do have things from
    time to time. I've picked up some bulk blank DVD's cheap, a video
    capture card, an ISA networking card and tons and tons of LCD monitors
    and cheap cables.

    They even had some Sony imaging stuff (An XV-T500 and XV-T600) but I
    passed on it since I'm not sure how they work or if they even worked (or
    were complete). Plus I blew my retro budget for this paycheck buying
    some games from "some guy" on Ebay. ;)
