I've got a bit pile of various sizes of EPROM, mostly for storing audio

half an hour to erase them a particularly onerous task - it's time to
walk away from the problem and make a cup of tea and a sandwich. It's
too easy to get sucked into the "must get it done" frame of mind, which
is surely akin to the infamous "get-home-itis" that pilots get.

Please note
that I've got a couple of programmers as well as an
eraser--and a big pile of EPROMs. I use them. But I don't find it
particularly convenient.
Fair enough. :-) I've been dealing with them for a long time (as
you have) and it's just second nature to me; I don't really notice
the inconvenience.
