I went to their web site, I'm jealous that you have something so close.
We had two places that have since gone - Weirdstuff Warehouse and Halted
Specialties. Both had huge spaces full of stuff. WW more computer-based,
Halted more on the electronics side.

I remember seeing whole phone systems, Sun shoebox cases stacked 5 feet
tall, RS/6000s, HP 3000s, 4-post racks, lots of intel servers, and
thinkpads.
