Yes, CompUSA definitely ought to have these little gems. They're actually a 
pretty standard laptop accessory, especially for folks like accountants and 
others who run a lot of number crunching applications while on the go. In 
fact, some of the online computer discount places like Cyberguys, 
ISellSurplus.com, TechForLess.com, etc., should have them fairly cheap.

I've never seen one, who has them?  I'm stuck on my laptop for the rest of
this week until I can build my new desktop. Maybe I'll look at Comp USA
tomorrow and see if they have them. I'll be next door anyway. It might be a
help for me though it's probably another accessory I'd get and never use. I
can see where like this week it could be very handy.
