Memorymoog.  Also old Oberheim stuff like the OB-X/OB-Xa/DSX/DMX.  Yeah 
my burner won't do 2532s either so I'm getting help from someone else. 
No, my PROMs didn't die; I have the dBM upgrade for the MM+ which is no 
longer available and I'm supplying my set to be copied.

Thanks for the pointer to Jameco, I grabbed some there.

Digikey has 2532s but they are serial EEPROMs not the 4Kx8 600mil 24 pin 
DIP package.  I don't think the DIP 4Kx8 version has been made for ages.
