Hi Ken-
You really have to compare the Digikey 25 price ($6.02) with the Mouser
price.
Digikey's one-off prices are always expensive, but their service is
great.  Order this AM, get it tomorrow.
Therefore, I always look at the 25 price as the 'real' price.
Still, Mouser will get lots of business from hobby people, because
usually we can't justify 25.
