Shopping in Las Vegas

[bulldog]

I am going to be in Vegas tommorow for the week. Where are some good places to buy computer hardware and software.

Thanks

There aren't any.

I blew a half day trying to find 100 Cat5 connectors, ending up at an industrial supply place (I took their entire stock - all 100 of 'em) to cable up a trade show booth.

They do have an Amateur Electronic Supply (AES) if you're looking for radio or antenna supplies. They might also have some consumer electronics stuff (no computer stuff).

There might be a couple hole-in-the-wall places, but I'm betting the prices are nuthin' special.

FWIW

2 Places come to mind, PC club, east on sahara, Computer surplus outlet on Patrick Lane, about 1 mile east of the airport.
I bought cat 5 cables there, 10 footer's for 3 bucks and 50 foot were around 8 bucks.
Computer surplus outlet is a dream place for Geeks, tons and tons of stuff, they have some earphones for a buck and new mice for 2 bucks right now.
There a lots of good places in Vegas to buy stuff.

There is not any decent PC shops in Vegas. I have more stuff at home than PC Club has in stock.

An interesting statement there is no Frys is Vegas to compare it with.

But about 3 weeks ago I bought a 16x DVD at the one on Sahara for $29.00. They also had a good sale on Motherboards. The one in Henderson sucks though.
Dont go there if you dont like it, I like it and have made some good buys there now and then. A little west in a strip mall Milissia computers always has cheap cases also.
