The Zip Chip is worth at least $80.  It is a rare piece of
hardware!  Worth collecting as well as using (might
as well use it...since, assuming surge protection, using
it does not damage it in any way).

The 8Mhz version is worth more.  There is a 4Mhz version.

I'd trade almost any Apple II peripheral for it.
