Hi,
your usual transputers dealer will buy from SGS - order til end of 1998
get them til end of 1999.
MSC in Germany will buy components for you if you order til 
end of 1998 and keep stock for you till end of 2000.
A contact man at MSC is Roland Hutter, his e-mail is 
rh@msc-ge.com
(tell him I sent you there).

Where I work I know we had ordered some stocks, since some of our
products are built ove rtransputers. however we are no longer relying on
them. Our future products have DSPs and PowerPC chips, using operating
systems SPOX and PSOS.
I liked the transputers while they lasted.
