A quick search at Farnell lists the cheapest 34063 at 41p for one and the cheapest 555 at 36p. I just don't get why 555 based supplies are so popular.
The 555 is a classic Experimenters chip. it is even sold at places like Radio Shack, and many folks have a tube of them in stock.
Hobby suppliers like Futurlec show them at 25 cents US each. and 17 cents in Hundreed lots. The 34063 in DIP is more like 45 cents each, and I know I don't have any of those in a drawer...
