Oh I know what you're saying.... all I needed with a 7404, a lowsy 7404
which next to hygrogen atoms is the most abundant thing on the planet....

Direct Quote from Radio Shack Employee:
"Uhhh errr.... a chip? Whaddya mean? A clip??? Errr uhhhh, chip...
must be a custom order thing, you can call the number in the catalog....
uuuuuhhhh ummmm errrrr"

Radio Shack my ass! DirecTV/MSN/Cellphone Sh*t Shack is more like it.
