It was called Microbyte.

I had my Nintendo NES chipped there back in the day. They also had a shop upstairs in the Greenmarket at Eldon Square, next door to the 'Kook Inn' cafe.

The other computer shop in the Red Quadrant, which might now a barber shop as Andreos suggests, was called Maughan Micro Computers. The third shop, the name of which eludes me, was more or less next door to Mycrobyte upstairs from Argos. TGI Fridays currently occupies the location.

I might be WRONG! but I don't think all three were open during the same period. Maughans lasted the longest but I'm sure Microbyte closed circa 1993 with the one next door opening the year after.
