<DIV>Hey Steve,</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks! Looks like they have some nice prices on some of the parts.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I see online they have some parts not listed in the catalog, but I think
prices a little higher on those.</DIV>
<DIV>Like Mega32 and Mega64 parts, but only available in TQFP-44 package
(0.8 mm lead pitch - yikes) and in some cases maybe not stocked so extra
time to deliver. Digikey looked better on those and had DIP packages
for those who don't care about hogging up some board space or are scared by
them real close together cat whiskers they call leads sticking out of
something smaller than a compact case for a barbie that you can't even see if
you look at it edge on.</DIV>
