J & R is THE place in the city to buy anything computer or electronic related. You usually cannot beat their prices, and they simply have the best selection, possibly because of more space, but you just can't beat it.
Cameras, computers, printers, music, DVDs, CDs, accessories, it's all here.
They also have student software in the store which can be a great help.
Sales people are very helpful. My biggest complaint is that you have to keep going up and downstairs to find what you need, sort of like Pearl Paint, but at least there are escalators!
Also - if you ever need to return anything, it's like going to an underground prison - kind of a scary experience, and they're not too happy to see you there.
Other than that, A+!

I was in Chinatown for the Chinese New Year celebration and decided to check out this packed to the door restaurant. I was with 4 of my non-Asian friends. We had to wait for 45 minutes which was totally fine because we did not have reservations?...what did we expect on Chinese New Year? We had the Peking Duck. It was the most deliciously succulent duck we had ever had. The skin was crispy and the meat was juicy. We also had the mixed steamed dumplings which were fresh and fabulous. We also had a bunch of their other entrees and they we all equally superb! Even though the restaurant was packed to the door the service was absolutely phenomenal! Everyone was helpful and as attentive as possible.
Pros: food, service, drinks, value
Cons: parking

I don't have a Mac, but all my friends do, and I am always jealous that they get to go to Tekserve while I am stuck dealing with so much garbage getting my laptop fixed. I have a friend whose I-book was dropped and the Mac warranty help center told her it was unfixable, and then she brought it to Tekserve and the guy fixed it for her no problem and was able to do it under warranty.

In a land before time, when the dinosaurs roamed, there were neighborhood video stores...remember....before the big chains, before netflix.
Alan's Alley at 207 9th Avenue, (between 22 & 23) is a survivor, and a thriver! Actually by any standard it's a gem of a video store. Their staff use their encyclopedic film knowledge for good, not evil. By this I mean they are incredibly knowledgeable without talking down to customers for not knowing every little arcane bit of trivia about film history.
Alan's Alley always seems to have all the newest films available, and if you give them a call, they happily set one aside for you. If your film is out they'll even give you a call right when it comes in.
Two day rentals are the norm here, but give them a break, their small...but mighty.
Also, they have everything, I mean every little rarity on DVD, plus their entire VHS stock still available for anyone who still hasn't made the switch (like my retired parents).

Do you need Hamburger Earmuffs? A toilet brush/fly swatter? Hammacher Schlemmmer is the place that might have items such as these because it's is the place to go for odd and novel things that are both useful and unnecessary at the same time. You can go there to enjoy their massaging chairs and vibrators and silly expensive adult toys. It's a fun place and you'll always find something you're sure you'll never need.

Pros: inexpensive, thoroughly enjoyable, air conditioning
Cons: crowds on certaindays, rare computer crashes, only 2 cons

Datavision, like all big computer stores, is somewhat evil. It's crowded, confusing and the sales peopel are agressive because they work on comission. That said, as far as I am converned, these people are miracle workers. You need something that's no longer in production an hour ago or your boss is going to kill you? If anyone can find it Datavision can. Take your product need emergencies to them.

More
The very best things about J&R Music and Computer world is the huge selection and the reasonable prices. You can find just about anything you need in terms of music and computers. The staff is for the most part knowlegable and helpful -- sometimes they are a little busy or difficult to find. But you really can't beat the prices or the selection -- definately comparable to the "chain" industry stores.
