I was just sitting around wondering how many chips people have in thier collections, so I thought i would post this poll. I know some have over 1500 chips, but i dont think thats the majority is it? As of right at this moment i have 447 chips.

Around 500

My collection didnt grow that much until I added clones to my existing collection of IBM and Intel samples. And I recently am starting to collect Pentiums so hopefully that will grow the collection as I try and get the common sspecs for scrap prices Smile

179 chips (more than I thought)

One of them is a week 53 chip. Does that get me any accolades?

I've counted the chips in my collection recently.

Currently there are exactly 1194 pieces of them. Very Happy

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000 at last count. (That's not including the ones on the thousand or so boards I have in storage.)

imho it's better to know thoroughly 5000 chips than to have 1000.
by now I have none of them. Smile
my score is about 700

No, if I limit it to CPUs and support chips it's probably around 2000. I'm including every chip I have from op amps to discrete logic. Date codes range from 1963 onward.

My collection is mostly housed off-site in a 1500 sq ft storage facility, since chips aren't the only things I collect.
