Numerous parts that are not on-line yet.
I've purchased from them--does not appear to be in the same category
at all--mostly discontinued and surplus stuff.
And a wildly freaky pricing structure... also, thewebsite isn't exactly
"helpful" ... I clicked on "ICs," and I found 1U ATX power supplies
for a
pretty good price. Other than 1, maybe 2 ICs *in* the power supply, what's

Under the IC listing, I found an $80 8Mhz Moto 68000!?!?!?!
Ye gods!!!
If you wanna go faster cheaper, you can get the 100 Mhz '486 for only
$59.00, tho... :-/
Weird...
