National, with their 32000 Designer Kit, has made it easy and inexpensive
for experimenters to get 6 MHz 32000 chip sets (CPU, MMU, FPU, ICU and TCU).
Faster parts, and other members of the 32000 family, seem hard to get in
small quantities.  For example, I would like a 10 MHz 32016 set and a
10 MHz NS32203 DMA controller.  All the distributors I called quoted
a six week delivery and a minimum quantity of 8 per part.

Anyone solved this problem?  Did anyone buy eight and get stuck with
leftovers they would sell me?

Hint to National: I recently saw a Motorola experimenters kit with a fast
(I think it was either 12 MHz or 16 MHz) 68020, 68881 floating point unit,
and some memory manager.
