The Kruger Company that advertises in Amazing showed 120ns 256x4 ZIP chips for about $3.60 each. They sell used but tested chips that have a 30 day guarantee. I've bought about 16 CPU chips so far and they seem to work; Krueger has fast service, and once you get past the operator/receptionist you're liable to find some fairly nice people; I suggest you ask for Myron Lieberman as mentioned in the ad; he has several Amigas of his own. I am not affiliated with them, only a satisfied customer. If you're not worried about using used chips (they are guaranteed) this is a great place to get incredible prices. An example: 8 Mhz 68010, $1 each. 25 Mhz 68030: $85. They have a minimum order of $50, though; I bought a bunch of '010 chips to fill out my order and have sold most of them for $3 to $5 each; they run great in any Amiga. . <<<>>>
