I have a really neat set of adapters I picked up in Taiwan a few years 
ago. The first one is an adapter from PLCC32 to DIL32 - it stands about 
2 inches high and slots directly into a PLCC slot. I have put a ZIF 
socket into that. I also managed to pick up an adapter from DIL to PLCC, 
and that has a special ZIF PLCC socket. I can try to see if a friend of 
mine in Taipei can find more of these - I recall paying just a few 
dollars for both adapters, and they have proved invaluable.
