HP loader rom chips

[Bob Shannon]

Seems like a reasonable price.  These parts have not been made
in a long time.

I really should get a few blanks, I need to burn a boot rom for
my IDE disk, and a few spare paper tape reader rom's would be
nice to have too.

I was able to burn Signetics 82S129's using a Xeltex programmer
but I'm not sure which 'compatible' rom number I selected to get
good parts.

Also keep in mind that you probably will get some failures during
programming, a 100% yield is a bit unrealistic.
