I am hacking up a new computer for myself,
and I am trying to find out if anyone makes
a 64K x 4 STATIC-COLUMN RAM chip.
Intel had it in their catalog at one point, but they
are out of the RAM business.  I know I can get 256k x 4
static-column RAMs, but they are overkill (and too expensive)
for my application.  If any of you have catalogs from
companies like NEC, Hitachi, Toshiba, etc., could
you look to see if they make this product?

If you can't find a static-column part, I might be
able to use a nibble-mode one.

BTW, a "static column" RAM is one where you can apply
new column addresses without reasserting CAS,
and very quickly access any data from one row.
A "nibble-mode" RAM lets you access sequential
bits by repeatedly reasserting CAS.
An internal counter supplies the new column
addresses for you.
