The interesting thing about Fry's is that they mostly sell high-tech stuff,
however, they seem to be about as low-tech in their business operation as
you can get. You'll not find a Fry's web page, but you will find a lot of
Anti-Fry's web pages if you look.
They're an interesting store, and I've gotten a lot of stuff from their
Wilsonville, Oregon store. They don't seem to have as good of prices as
they used to, and since it's a long drive to get there I haven't gone
lately. OTOH, at least in this area their selection of parts and tools
can't be beat. Watch what you buy though, a lot of it is refurbished, or
returned.

Well, I know where there's at least one full box of MMJ's but no crimp
tool. Do you have an email contact or URL for us outlanders?

The Fry's in Sunnyvale CA has restocked its
supply of "crimp" tools and has
a bunch of the Ideal Industries #30-497 tools, this does RJ-45 *and* DEC
MMJ connectors. They get $40 + tax for it which is a lot less than Black
Box wants for theirs! They do not have crimp on MMJ connectors :-(
