As a component engineer I personally tested out some 68 pin PLCC sockets for
use in a new product we're developing. As far as I could tell, the overall
best PLCC sockets are from Burndy, Methode, and Yamaichi. All of these are
based on high pressure tin contact design, are relatively cost-effective and
reliable, and use the same extraction tool (namely the Burndy QILEXT-1 extrac-
tion tool). If anyone is interested in further information please send me
some e-mail to the effect.

				   Yours truly,  BIG DAVE.
