I've got two back home. Is there some reason the ULA will eventually die on it's own, or are they safely stored in the closet for the generations to come?

- varjag 16y agoAll electronics is bound to die as it ages, due to latent chemical reactions. Chances are, ULA will last longer when unused. One problem with Sinclair ULAs is that, unlike e.g. logic gate or CPU they can't be readily replaced by a commodity component. ULA is custom-mask chip produced by order in small quantities, the key issue here is scarcity.
