Is there any intrinsic benfit from using PAL's rather than separate logic chips - apart from the obvious board looking nicer/reduced chip count. I have no facilities for programming pals and so do not want to go to the trouble if they have no advantages - other than mentioned above, which I can live with. Thanks.
