Subject: Apple ALS CP/M card 74S109 vs 74F109

I find it interesting that someone would find a Fairchild F series chip
in an Apple. F series is faster than S (1ns gate delay, typical), and
uses less power. It is considerably more susceptable to noise, however.

Since F is more expensive and harder to get than S, I can't understand
why you'ld see F used. However, it might explain the problems he was having.
