In response to someone's question, DEC does in fact still sell some
PDP-8 spares.  They vary from "kinda expensive" to "outrageous", but
if you screw up one of your core stacks they've really got you
cornered.
As I remember, M8350's were kinda reasonable though, M8360's aren't
available (bummer!), and RX8E's were something around $250, which is
a hell of a lot but they've gotten really rare lately...

On the other hand, they wanted almost $200 for the paddle card/cable
that goes between an RK8E and the first RK05 -- if anyone has one of
these to sell for a *lot* less than this I'd be very interested!
