That’s not what I meant. Your brilliant sarcasm misses the point.
The point here was that vintage BBD scarcity helps to sell these things. Is that a taboo of some sort? Also it’s something you should know, as you’ve helped to market these things, working for Sweetwater.
And they still have the minifooger delay, also based on vintage discontinued BBD chips.
I know, I was just having a larf.
It was one of those miraculous finds of enough of the NOS (new, old stock) chips that allowed the making of a limited run of 104s.
And then there’s the requirement of putting aside enough chips for repairs.
The profoundly powerful parameter pushing on the MF-104M means that you can’t just swap in any old BBD chip without a serious reworking of the circuit board (if it’s even possible).
Minifooger Delay uses a modern BBD still being manufactured, not the same as the MF-104m.
All other foogers which use BBDs use models different from the one in the MF104M
Was somehow convinced that it was a vintage chip. 
That I am aware of. 
No offense to DemonDan, but Sweetwater is not always the most reliable judge of what’s in stock or what’s available.
That being said, I do hope the delay makes it’s way back on the market.
