I got to know the manager while they were still in Pasadena. He would seem me entering the store and appear in a whirlwind of arms chanting "No electronics, just computer!".<br><br>Sadly this store really isn't as worth a visit as it was in its heyday 10 years ago. The sister store in Newport Beach still sports stacks of electronics parts worthy of a pilgrimage. At least it did last time I visited NB to get my car worked on at the dealership down there.<br>
