    Office Depot has some, but only usually 2. It will give you an idea what they are like.

    their screens are usually xga..so if you're looking to buy one with sxga or higher resolution it won't give you a good idea of how it should look since those tend to be brighter and have better viewing angles

    Some college/university bookstores carry models as well.

    I have never seen office depot have it in store, but i have seen staples have it inside.

    for complete solution, you should visit college bookstore like zaz said.
