If you saw my thread about upgrading my PC, you'll know I want to... well... upgrade my PC

All the components I am planning to get add up to £300, but I looked what the price of them all on http://newegg.com was and it came to roughly £236. However, newegg is an online store, so when we go to America we would have to get them to ship it to a hotel, which we don't really want to do, so what is a/are some good American shop(s) that I could just walk into and be able to buy a Motherboard, some RAM and a processor in?
Thanks.

Not sure where you're going, but there's Frys Electronics.

Never mind about Fry's then, but there is a Microcenter: http://microcenter.com/at_the_stores/cambridge.html

Thanks, but I think we've decided to just buy them here as with the VAT the airport would charge us it would only be about £20 cheaper, plus then if they go wrong we're screwed.
