I got mine from Jameco, they are a bit pricy if you buy a lot of them. Ebay might have some bulk supply if you find the right seller, just make sure you don’t order cheap parts that are actually cheap.

Where did buy your SPDT switches from? The ones that found where too expensive.

Can you post most, if possible, all the list of parts you used? Posting on instructables would be good.

Go ahead and try using them. There is a good chance that during the first run of my ALU for the first computer I was going to build (4-bit) that I may have fried the chips. There is also a chance that they were defective to begin with though as some chips that I did not use initially still had problems. I got my batch from a Fry’s as well. My suggestion would be to try a few parts just to test the water, NTE parts are meant for replacement but should function just like standard chips.

Can you use NTE chips at all? My local fry’s stocks pretty much every 7400 and 4000-series chips there are but the are all NTE. However I found my NTE 74HC02 is just a re-branded TI 74HC02 with the original markings painted over.
