and pretty difficult to
damage (e.g. by ESD).
You must be careful with old CMOS - most from the early 1970s will die

TTL and the others can be abused all day...
How insane? Are these price so high that I
couldn't even consider buying

rare computer, or what?
I think I remember prices in the 25-50 dollar range for common glue.
