I wouldnt say that...  it just takes a bit more outlay of cash to pick them
up right now.  The lowest quantity I can quickly lay my hands on would be
probably 5000...

And I finally got an answer from Rochester Electronics, although I had to
get a friend at Raytheon to ask them, they are or can be set up for production 
of 3080's and 3280's, they just wont make them until supplies have dried up
even more and they wont be cheap.  I also expect to hear good news from our
friends in Japan soon ( NJR ) although they are mum on the subject at the 
moment.  A chip like the 3080 has been in production so long I expect caches
of them will be showing up for years.
