I have put 2 photos on a web server
http://www.prodigi.ch/adaptor/plccdil.jpg
and
http://www.prodigi.ch/adaptor/plcczif.jpg
The plccdil picture shows the adaptor from PLCC to DIL32, with one of
the 32-PIN ZIF sockets I bought plugged into the top of it.
The 2nd image is the PLCC ZIF socket - incedentally, it does not show in
the picture, but at the bottom it has 32 pins sticking out IN a DIL
arrangement which can plug into an EPROM programmer (well into a DIL ZIF
socket actually).

There is a large mall in Taipei somewhere (my Taiwanese friend knows
where), and I went there to have a look around and I just happend to see
these adapters, and I was blown away by their prices - if I remember
correctly, the PLCC->DIL adapter was about US$5 and the DIL->ZIF PLCC
was about $12 - I also picked up about 6 regular DIL32 ZIF sockets for
$3 each. I had previously bought these sort of things from emulation and
the like, and as you say, their prices are crazy. I have sent an e-mail
to my friend in Taipei, and will see what he comes back with.

and that has a special ZIF PLCC socket. I can try to see if a friend of
mine in Taipei can find more of these - I recall paying just a few
dollars for both adapters, and they have proved invaluable.
Just a couple of dollars? Wow! Thats awesome. emulation.com normally
has stuff like that for a hundred plus dollars. If you find some
I'll buy a few.
