[sdiy] ODP: Buying directly from Texas Instruments

[David G Dixon]

Well, I use Paypal for my own sales, and it is very convenient.  The only
downside is the fairly large fee, but that can be passed onto customers.

Wait till all business using PayPal as an option will finally flogg PayPal
in the public square.
They are ripoff, and starting next year they are introducing some new
regulatory, which was probably one of the reasons TI dropped them. Can't
remember the details but it was something like "if you accept more than $600
per year with us, you're screwed"
