   I found a 74XX867 in an old TI data book, but no one has this chip.
   So like how come there are so few 8 bit anything in high-speed
   TTL?  I'd even pay $5 for a 16 bit TTL binary counter (32 MHz min.),
   But I doubt they exist...

Maybe you could use a PAL or GAL like 22V10 ?

Why is it important to get an 8 bit counter in one package, as 
opposed to tying two 4-bit counters together ?
