 Adding to mike's and ethan's cross-refs, I have a large core memory
 module from Burroughs from 1979, the IC's have both Burroughs and 7400
 part numbers on them. Out of your list I was able to cross-ref 3 of
 them, although 2 of those have already been cross-ref'd:
               mike   ethan   brent
 2584 0821
 2574 6975
 2571 5418
 2600 1529
 1447 3581     7438    7438N  7438J[1]
 1447 3540     7410    7410F
 2600 1495     7404           74S04F  [2]
 1447 3797     9322  SN74157
 2600 1487                    74S00F
 2603 2623
 2625 5562
 2554 0888
 2600 1495  (listed twice)
 ([1] over-stamped with 2624 8922)
 (ethan's list shows a different burroughs # for 7404)

 For my own interest, I wish I knew what machine this core memory came
 from. A large plug-in PCB about 18 inches square, with a
 daughter-board containing a folded planar array mounted to it. 32
 KWords, 20 bits/word.
 
I would advise archiving the PROM data - and possibly posting it
somewhere (bitsavers?) so if someone someday needs that PROM they could
reconstruct it...
In my industry (coin-operated amusements) lots of folks have spent a lot
of time archiving Eproms/Proms/Roms and this often saves a game. We
archived thousands of Eproms and Proms over the years and burn them for
folks that don't have the ability (for a small fee) or send the code if
they can burn (and trade something back).
