Beyond Bytes (aka After Bytes) in Independence on 17331 40 HWY, between
Lee's Summit Rd. and 291 HWY.  One of the older guys in there is a jerk if
you mention Linux (I stopped just short of getting in an argument w/ him
about the availability of support), but they have used 3com NICs for $5.  He
didn't however, have the fan that I needed to fix a power supply and thought
I was crazy for trying to fix such a thing.  Next time I go in I'm just
going to tell the guy that the customer is always right or something like
that.
