Title: FOUND better and trusted source for the header pins
Post by: HDL_CinC_Dragon on February 04, 2008, 01:53:19 PM

36 Position header pins on Digikey cost like $1.60 each
40 Position header pins on this site (http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/item/SHS-40/192/SINGLE_ROW_HEADER,_1_X_40_.html) cost $0.60 each plus special quantity deals:

You would have to order about 5,000 from Digikey.com for the unit prices to be the same! O_O
I love Digikey but I love this other site even more and I love their service. I have NEVER had a problem with them :)
