very cool indeed.)
Historically, "Selectronics" has handed everything from Univac I
machines to parts of the ETA10 (essentially the last "big-iron"
"super computer").

3411 Grays Ferry Ave

I haven't been there in years, but their website implies that they
have quite an assortment of "stuff."
There is also an "importer/manufacturer" located out Baltimore pike
just this side of Lansdowne Avenue. Off hand I don't remember their
name, but they do have a website.
They make an assortment of "white boxes" and have all kinds of parts
for sale -- but you have to know what you want and ask for it. ...
nothing at all like Frys or even Radio Shack.
