    Those sure were the old days weren't they ? :) I agree with you. Today there are very few low-count logic gates like those produced. When such things are required people usually use a PLD or go the ASIC approach. In other words, much higher density than four gates in a DIP chip. The Ten Commandments For C Programmers

    I wish we could have used PLD/ASIC devices. I attended the Grand Opening party for LSI Logic (one of the pioneers in the field), and even a simple one would have cost me $100,000 for the first prototype! I could buy a lot of circuit board space and DIPs for that price... Now you can buy an array and burn it yourself for a couple of bucks!:omg: I'm a Frisbeeterian.

        I know what CMOS is, but I can never remember what the letters actually stand for. Saying that, I have never had a reason to use any BIOS level flashing stuff, and wouldn't know where to begin. Regardz Colin J Davies
