3M SOIC Wide Test Clip, 28-Pin, Alloy (923660-28).
Can't find a picture anywhere on digikey's site nor
3M's site.

This is (allegedly :) a test-clip that will clamp
around the pins of an SOIC chip.  I'm thinking of
using it as a simple way to program 16F872-I/SO
chips.  I'll solder the chip in first, clip this
on (with the appropriate wiring to my Tait
programmer), slap the code on, and build the rest
of the circuit.

[I usually prefer to solder the chip last (if I'm
not using sockets), but the way the board is laid
out, the chip will likely be first anywhere.]

So I'm looking for opinions on if this is a
workable solution, before I order one.

Cheers,
-Neil.
