It's in Norristown. I was there once. In fact, it was my first eBay purchase, I saved a few bucks on shipping. OTOH if I'd known it was going to take an hour of driving surface streets, I might have paid the shipping.

It was this warehouse with just piles and piles of old computer stuff, and some benches with a bunch of guys building whole computers out of parts. Pretty cool, really. If it weren't such a pain in the ass to get to, I might volunteer some of my time.
