[QUOTE="Jon Rowlison, post: 417963, member: 32211"] Back in the day (up until maybe 1990) you could go to Radio Shack and find a great selection of parts, kits, switches, and patches. They also had some really affordable "100% IBM Compatible" Tandy computers and great speakers (Realistic?) Somewhere along the line, they decided they wanted to dive head-first into selling cell phones and cases for the same. With higher prices than other outlets, I just never understood that strategy and don't know if they made much money on it. All of their stores around my home closed a few years ago after having been barren of customers for quite some time. [/QUOTE]
