  I have the EMP20 from Needham elect.  Was about $4-500.  It does do
gals/pals/uP/eproms/ and anything else you could think of in a DIP package
(PLCCs and other packages require a small adapter).  It has a parallel port
interface which makes it FAST to program 8Mbit parts.  Uses little $25
'cards' that remap the pins of the socket to accept different package
sizes/pinouts.  I think they have a buy 2 get one free 'card' offer.  They
also have free lifetime software upgrades via a BBS.  Have had mine for 2+
years and have done just about everything (although the HC11 and Microchip
PIC cards get the most use).
