Unfortunately the lack of actual electronics parts places in town mean that shopping
online is the only option. We used to have multiple options in the area, they slowly
disappeared, including Rat Shack. Fry?s is the only option that I?m aware of left.
On an interesting note, I read an article recently, that popped up in my financial news.
