They're quite addictive, and if you pay for the fast shipping, amazingly
fast.
I figure for MOST projects if I can't plan three days ahead (worst case)
I probably shouldn't be slapping together the project that fast
anyway... but I do understand the need for spare parts available locally
when something dies, too.
Just bring a Fry's to Denver or Boulder somewhere and I'd be happy.
CompUSA can continue to go under (even though I'm seeing rumors about
the "new" CompUSA?) for all I care... it's not THAT far to MicroCenter,
even from Boulder... on a weekend day when the I-25 traffic isn't maddening.
You'll pay more in gas round-trip from Boulder to Microcenter than
Newegg will charge for shipping, though. Understand that too.
