Never really saw the point of them over Vero. I suppose you could pack
things in more densely - but not usually a priority for prototypes.

You can use things that aren't DIL - PGAs, PLCCs, connectors etc. You also aren't
governed by the strip layout. It's better for high speed stuff.

These days I sometimes use similar but it's all surface mount - strips would
be hopeless for that. Haven't used a DIL chip for years.
