What always missing in computer stores??

Dont you just hate how every South African PC store has EXACTLY the same brands :ie Albatron Asus,gecube,thermaltake....lord forbid they actually stock a variety.
And the prices~!!!!
 
People who know their stuff about hardware..unfortunately incredible corruption staff are taught to think about $$$ rather than helping the consumer.
 
They never bloody have accessories! For example, I've been hunting for the VIVO accessory that came with my fx 5950 and I can't bloody find it ANYWHERE!
If someone knows, please put me out of my misery...

You will be searching forever you dont get a Vivo accessory for the 5950, either your card has a vivo option or not.
 
PRICES ON THEIR FREAKING PRODUCTS.

Yea, Incredible C seem to be ashamed of their prices or something. Even worse , when the store attendent swoop down on me and i ask what is the price, then they freaking need to go swipe it through the barcode scanner to get the price!

Lastest tactic seem to have like an entire row filled with PS2s or DVDs and only have a add saying "SPECIAL DVDs RANGING FROM ONLY R49!" (and no prices on the actual DVDs) ..Turns out all the DVDs costs R200+ but the lonely crap one one on the bottom costs R49 . Useless, it's like buying a lucky packet, never know what you are going to pay.

Yeah i saw the in the other post he made. But when he said "accessory" and not cable i thought you doing get such a thing.
 
1.Linux distributions
2.Computer books that arn't 3 years old..........or even books on Computer's
3.Reasonable prices
 
It's an FX 5950 ultra and the cable/accessory is proving a bitch to find. And it won't work with just a standard S-Video cable either :/
