buying Apple supplies in PH?

Does anyone know of anywhere in PH that sells Apple supplies? In particular, I need a new power cord for my iBook G4 (grrrrr.) I'd prefer not to have to go to Manhattan today (Sunday) if I can help it. Does anyone have any tips as to a supplier, er, retailer? :)

    Steve, a DHer (actually, a DSer, I think) has a computer shop in the nabe. I'm not sure if they carry Apple stuff, but you could call and find out.

    Carnivore...Appreciate the promo, but the store has been closed for about 6 years. I'm just an IT consultant now. Much less overhead. If anyone needs work done, I'm your guy, but that's my home address would you mind removing it from the post. :)

    Megan...There isn't much apple retail in Bk, well other than Mikeys in Billyburg. Dependig on what you need, you may be able to get it at JandR, which is a quick trip across the bridge. O/w the apple store and Tekserve are the standbys, and I order a lot from macmall.com . What did you need?

    The Circuit Sh!tty down on Flatbush & Atlantic might actually have an iBook power adapter, but I wouldn't bet on it. But J&R isn't that far.

    Man, I am missing the Apple employee discount pricing more and more.

    I looked there yesterday, and no dice. Or, at least none that I could find on the floor. Same held true for Office Max, and I didn't bother trying Target (too chaotic) or PC Richard (wrong side of the roads/intersections).

    Thankfully, I work very nearby to J&R and bought a $35 Macally iBook AC adapter at lunctime today. My original post was simply me trying to appease my id's cry of "NOW! NOW! NOW!" :wink:

    I needed a AC adapter for my iBook, as there was an... accident involving the original cord's connecting pin. (grrrrrr.) Hooray for J&R and Macally saving me $45(!!!!!) - the official iBook replacement cord costs $79.99 while the Macally cord from J&R costs $34.99! Hooray! :mrgreen:

    Yes, but isn't that helpful two-color LED feedback *worth* that extra forty bucks?




    Oh, wait.
