    And what a crap price!  So far the best price I have found on CA3280's
is $2.83 (100's) and 4.something in 1's  Compared to a 13700 at ~$1.00, it
is kind of steep.  That's the trouble with being old, you remember when
things cost less (although, last time I got CA3280's 20 years ago, they were
$2.00 each (100's), so I guess I don't really have anything to complain
about, just a grumpy old hacker I guess).
