pawn shop electronics?

[Greasy Burger]

anybody here ever buy any computer parts from pawn shops?

[Tomteriffic]

Not usually. They generally don't know from straight up about what they have.

Fortunately, I've got a little "cutting edge of obsolescence" computer shop near me that's a real good source for parts.

They usually have fairly obsolete systems that they want way too much for.
