I recently ordered 1meg x 1 80ns chips from Microprocessor
Unlimited for $5.25 each. Microprocessor Unlimited has been
around for at least five years, and I've never had a bad chip
from them in over 20 orders. It's obvious to me that $150 for
32 chips of unknown history is not enough of a bargain to
tempt many people in today's market.
