DIP is a package type for ICs, so it still falls under the umbrella term of microchip, particularly cartoon ones.
That's like showing someone firefox and saying "this is a logic algorithm", though. If someone did that, wouldn't you interject and say to them: "No silly, that's a computer program, more specifically firefox," lest they be more confused than they should?
Realize that disagreement with my point will prompt me to call everything by their super-broad synonymous terms. Mind you, I'm not trying to pick a fight or disagree with you in any way (your point is in fact, the right one), but simply find a reason to do my new joke du jour.*

** Oh, the memories. I remember when I posted pictures for everything. And before that, the pipe days (pipe dreams?).
EDIT: Grammar. More specifically, me grammar your face.

On a side note, has anypony taking the time to listen to just the BGM during Pinkie Pie's mental break down? If not, you should give it a listen...in the dark.

I wasn't trying to pick a fight either, just explaining my reasoning for choosing a DIP over something that looks more like the CPU out of a personal computer.
Anyway, Best Pony or BEST Pony? [fc03.deviantart.net] Wide-ass image LOL, stretching out your screen like a certain internet meme involving stretching an orifice*.
*LOL, didn't expect that to be filtered. I should have known better.

But if you don't openly disagree with me I won't be able to make my new jokes du jour :<
Eyup, me too. Back then I was trying to google for alternate ending: "how to save Aerith". You'd be surprised with how many people tried the same thing (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
