There's a pc kit type shop on Old Street roundabout. Struck me as pretty
dodgy: I walked in looking at modems, and the sales droid didn't seem to
have heard of linux, then insisted that the pci modem would have no
problems with it. The prices weren't competitive, and the kit was pretty
grungy. You'd be very lucky to find RJ45 connectors there....
