I may sound stupid, but where is a joy in spending month and a half earnings on ready PCB... The real fun is to order chip samples, take some wires and solder it :) Oh, yea, for those BGA's I will need to get some microscope too... Just a stupid answer provoked by anouncemnts which get on this list lastly - are you sure this is a right place to put anouncments? And $500 is not that cheap.

How about going TTL, with 150+ chips per computer , lots of fun y'all. like here: http://members.iinet.net.au/~daveb/simplex/simplex.html > Just a stupid answer provoked by anouncemnts which get on this list > lastly - are you sure this is a right place to put anouncments? And > $500 is not that cheap. Well this is not the right place, but you get what you pay for: a good product and good service. > Tomasz Sztejka Ben. PS. Having a altera FPGA prototype board is a pain since I have to update to new software/ licence every 6 months, a real pain and the free-software is only under windows. |
