Oh, good gravy, Olson Electronics in Buffalo in the early 80s!!  I spent 
more than a little time there when I was in high school ('78-'82) as it was 
only a block from where I'd catch the city bus home from school.  I spent 
more than a few $$ of hard-earned allowance and lawn mowing money at Olson, 
and at Radio Shack which was a half block from Olson.
