Hi all,

To make a long story short, I bricked my laptop when flashing the BIOS, only way to fix it is with an EEPROM programmer, so I bought one, but I accidentally broke off a pin while trying to flash it.

I've only found the chip available at Jameco electronics, but I don't have a credit card and don't feel like spending $20 shipping on a $2 part...
If anyone's going to be making an order from Jameco in the near future, would you be able to order me qty 3 of part no 1917515?
It's a Winbond W25x80VSSIG 8mbit flash chip, and I'd like a couple extras in case I destroy one again.

The chips are a little over $2 ea, and shipping from the US to Canada should be less than $1 for such a small package... I will paypal you $10 beforehand if you're willing to help me.

hahahaha, I have that problem with digikey. I have to order a crapload more stuff to get my order without the handling cost. I did get a really neat microanalog like switch from them the last time I ordered since I didn't have enough stuff to qualify for the nonhandling so I got extra stuff I don't need but may be able to incorporate into something eventually. I'd recommend getting a few other things.

I have a Cree type led that I got that is RGB and I figure I'll be able to use the switch the individual lights on and hit all at the same time and get white.

Yeah... it's not just the minimum-order-handling-fee thing that's stopping me, it's also that they don't take paypal...

Neat little switch though... looks like the D-pad off a video game controller.
