 The 6116 is a great part and 4 of them are enough

Dig into a junker external modem--the later V.32 ones have some very nice
SRAM chips in 64kx8 and 32Kx8 configurations.  One chip and you're done
with RAM needs.

 Or a 386 or 486 mainboard.  I have all my tiny(dip but .3 wide) cmos
8kx8, 32kx8 and larger that are real nice for this kind of stuff.  Usually
there will be a 27256 or 27C256 on those for 32k of easily programmed Eprom.
