They have some fair prices. I love Jameco. :-)

On the subject of old microprocessors.... One thing I found rather interesting
the other day was replacements for the MOS 6502 are still being manufactured by
a company called "Western Design Center". They are still used in many
applications today such as automotive and medical. Check it out --->

I didn't know the old chips were still being utilized. Does anyone know of a
company still producing the 6800 series and where they might still be used?
