MC68881RC16A was the original version of the chip.  It costs about $175.
There's a new revision of the chip out from Motorolla, the MC68881RC16B
that's about $135 and seems to work fine in our 3/50s.

Whatever you do, don't get the MC68881RC12A, etc. that's a 12MHz part.
You want a 16MHz part.

If you can't find an electronics house that can give you the chip (I
couldn't), call Motorolla directly and they'll give you a list of who you
can get them from in your area.
