| 173604 | 2003-09-07 06:22:00 | I'll be in Wellington this week, and so I was wondering if there are any decent computer shops nearby (ie walking distance) to Te Papa? I don't know Wellington at all, so don't send me too far away LOL Mike. |

| 173605 | 2003-09-07 06:25:00 | Heh... depends on what you define as walking distance ;-) PC Company is two blocks away... However computer shops per se I assume you mean somewhere you can pick up loose hardware and software etc rather than packaged toy shops? |

No no, I meant a real computer shop. > However computer shops per se I assume you mean > somewhere you can pick up loose hardware and software > etc rather than packaged toy shops? Yeah - I'm after software (games specfically), but hardware would be good too, if cheap enought :) Mike. |

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday > I could be your guide :-) That'd be great, except I'm busy most of the time, so it'll only be in lunch breaks and any other free time I can muster (by not turning up to some of the conference seminars :D) Mike. |

Quay Computers (http://www.quay.co.nz) - Corner of Lambton Quay and Bowen Street Wises Maps (http://www.wises.co.nz) should help you get there |

| 173610 | 2003-09-07 06:43:00 | All the normals like Bond and Bond, Computer City, Dick Smith Electronics etc are around the place. But for software selection Quay is probably your best bet. |
