Sure, a Darlington would work too. It's just a good thing to know you can parallel identical FETs/CMOS logic and get higher current drive. A lot of times that's handy when you're only using a few of the channels in a device, but need more drive. You can use the unused channels to boost your...
I'm bumping this ancient thread because I think this is a good question and no one suggested one good option, which is to parallel multiple channels of an HC244 together. Most 244s claim a typical 6mA output drive (which I suspect is slightly conservative), so three 244 outputs tied together...
