Must not be Winbond at all.

And I don't know about others, but I haven't been able to get that chip to program with the v8237r and flashrom. It programs fine in a programmer and works fine, but either erase or write doesn't work correctly. I've successfully used PMC (now pflash?) pm49fl004 and winbond w38v080a, which are both part of BIOS Savior RD1s.

It is true.

The Swedish distributors have told me that Winbond is not at all
interested in small sales volumes such as this.

And for someone to keep stock is not very likely, since this is an
infrequent sale.
