An 8-bit decoder based on  a '688 requires three "chips", the
688, a (half of a) package of pull-up resistors and the dip switch. 
If you don't need the  user selectablility of the dip switches and 
have already made the leap to programable logic, you can do a single chip 
solution with almost any PAL. I prefer GALs (Generic Array Logic) 
myself mostly because of the easy re-programming (I never seem to have
time to get it right the first time, but usualy have time to get it
right eventually.)

A nice feature of the GAL(PAL) solution, is that you have lots of 
flexibility about signal polarity and you can clock it if that is 
appropriate.
