Found a tube of these under the beer fridge. No idea what it is, do you?

7144 looks like the date code, and 1971's pre-7400 series TTL, so probably not game related...

Best case would be a pre-7400 equivalent of a 74259, but I kinda doubt it.
 
better put it back in the tube cause in the tube it is probably inert. see the F ? prob means it is from the future and its some sort of micro scale robot thats just waiting for a drop of beer to activate it - so it can hop away. prob eats gold pcb fingers for breakfast and smokes resin cored solder. all those little legs are designed to pierce the skin on your if you pick it up the wrong way and inject digital pulses ttl or ecl. it might also be in disguise as an arcade monitor chip to attract the unwary engineer into powering it up at which point it will go for the neck.....oh heck i got nuttin! :p
