   Try ELI Heffron and Sons in Cambridge (138 Hampshire (I think)).  They have
   all sorts of components, computer bits, test equipment and similar stuff.


Eli is a good place to try; they're at 139 Hampshire St, Cambridge. 
Last heard of, it was 8 - 5 weekdays, 8-3 Saturday, closed SUnday. 
Call them at 617-547-4005 to check their holiday timings. 

Another place (not quite in Boston) is Electronic Surplus Service. Originally 
used to be near Nashua, now moved to Milford, NH. Call them at 603-673-5690
They're 9 - 4  weekdays. Bigger operation than Eli's

Also check out BNF in Peabody. Call them first, at 617-531-5785

Computer Bargains, in Haverhill, MA, is at 617-372-8637

The last two places have stuff like old 19" color monitors for 
ridiculous prices (but they're going to be incompatible with any known
standard). It's been at least a year since I visited them, so call. 

Happy hunting ...
