Classic Computing in LA - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

John:

  My company's office is on South Lake at the corner of Del Mar. I don't have a
map handy but I think that it's a softball's throw from CalTech.

  Where in Old Town is Empire Electronics? Usually I walk to Old Town from my hotel to
kill some time.

  Well I work at Caltech (Pasadena) and live in a city
immediately 
 adjacent and 
 I'm not aware of any good "classic computing" spots.  Wish I did.

 My favorite electronics spots are Dow (now Mavac) and C&H, both on 
 Colorado 
 Blvd.  Tim Shoppa turned me on to Empire Electronics in Old Town 
 Pasadena.
 That's about it.

 Good luck,

 John

  I'm going to Los Angeles, CA for a few days
next week on   business. Are there
  any good spots to check out for classic computing
/ electronics   gear? I'll
  probably be in the Pasadena area. Last time I
went I was in   Ceritos, and all
  the cool electronics surplus places I've
heard of were closed. I   also have
  the luxury of several equipment boxes that will
be shipped along   with me and
  returned on my way back :)
