	I'm not sure if this is the appropiate Bboard to ask a question like
this but I was wondering if anyone knew of any everyday, run-of-the-mill,
advertise-in-a-magazine type of outfit that sells Eproms with a speed of
200nS?  Also does anyone know of a place that sells 70nS Drams?  As
you can probably tell I'm trying to speed up my PC, but I'm also to be soon
involved in designing and learning about stand-alone single board u-processors
and I'm interested in experimenting with high speed devices for knowledge
and curiousity sake.

	If I have errored by placing this message here, and there exists a
more appropiate Bboard somewhere, could somebody please inform me?  I only
specify the criteria of an everyday run-of-the-mill place because I realize
I can obtain these types of components thru Newark or Hamilton Avnet or any
of those LARGE electronic distributors, who often carry HIGH minimum order
rates.  But I don't intend to spend over $50.00 for this stuff (as I said,
I'm only experimenting, and intend to buy only a couple of fast Eproms
and Drams)

	One final question (which is probably more along the lines of this
Bboard) : would it be wiser to concentrate one's learning efforts on the
80X86 series or the 680X0 series?  Does a particular series provide a more
practical approach toward learning about pipelined architecture, protection
techniques and multitasking?  Aside from buying books and tech. manuals,
what would be the most useful (yet inexpensive) method to go about getting
some actual hardware experience with these Cpus?  Lastly, what are the
pros and cons of learning about the structure of one chip over the other?

Thanks in advance to all for any advice and information.
