I'd like
to see the ads again.
The adverisments really defined just how people saw the techology.
I think I still have a Poly Paks data sheet for a uA709
op-amp (TO- 99). Was pretty amazing stuff back then.
I grew up in Wakefield Massachusetts. I used to ride my bike over to
PolyPaks and raid their dumpster on a regular basis. It looks like they
used to get all sorts of stuff for evaluation that they'd toss.
Sometimes I'd have money to spend there too.
