On the one paw, I can relate to not having a decent computer store
available for this kind of thing--or anything, for that matter.  I
never thought I'd say I miss Fry's, but dang it, I do--if *only* I
could talk them into a franchise...I'd be set...but I digress.  On the
other paw, if these twits can use ePay, it's not that much further
along to get a Paypal debit card and buy things for decent prices new
from Amazon.

As they say...if common sense was common...
