I just paid
about $5.65 shipped for *each* of my (16) 1Mx4-bit
DIPs. I was honestly happy to find them at that price. Those chips
are exceedingly rare and this is the first time I've found any for
sale at a reasonable price and quantity for the last five years.
(and I've been looking)
They are not SO rare in Brazil. Although uncommon, these can still be
found as pulls.
I was happy that they were NOS, and I fully tested them, and they seem
to work fine. I was nervous that I might have a dead one(DOA), or
improper handling would either damage a chip or worse the expansion
board. These specific boards are likely to be rare(maybe 1/2 dozen
users on amiga sites), and provide 32-bit data for the '030 on the
accelerator.
