I was looking at an old 2400 baud fax modem for my pc, and noticed that it had what looked like an eprom on it. I pulled the chip and peeled off the label, and it was a 27256 eprom. I also bought a 2400 baud modem at a thrift store for $2.00 and it had a 27128 eprom in it. This was cheaper than buying the eprom by itself. I paid $3.00 for a 2764, and didn't even price a 27128. I am going to start picking up all of the old cheap, almost worthless modems and grabbing the eproms out of them. You can probably pick up the modem for less than the price of the eprom that it holds. If anyone else knows of a cheap source of eproms or other chips, share it with us.
