Computer Shopper was once as thick as any phone book with twice the page size. I started buying it, before it got quite so huge, when I was trying to buy 640K of ram to go on an 8 Mhz PC clone mobo.I chickened out and bought an Emerson (honest to God, a Packard Bell clone!) for $700 instead of parts for $650, but there was someplace to return the Emerson! I got braver with the advent of the 286 and semi-local Computer Shows. Not that you could succeessfully return much to a Computer Show, but you could pretend, and get your wife to gonalong with it.
