When Ramco/Electronics city closed, it took weeks and many dumpsters to clear everything out (so I heard). There are a few places that sell connectors and phone wires, but no chips, capacitors or discrete stuff. Sylvan/Wellington is still on Broadway and Canal, but they're not cheap, and not surplus. It's mostly a TV repairman's store. -- Jeffrey Jonas jeffj@panix.com -- Jeffrey Jonas jeffj@panix.com
