    Mouser rather suprises me....heck, once you start getting that catalog, it
just never stops.....:-)

    Another good company is Digikey as well. http://www.digikey.com

    I have also used JDR, http://www.jdr.com although, they don't have a big
selection of parts, they are usefull.

    Another is Future-Active http://www.future-active.com  I don't really like
their web site.  Seems a bit difficult to use.  Getting their catalog can be
problematic.  I requested it several times and never got it.  I finally got
one when when a sales rep stopped by where I work.
