FPGA for 8051core??

Hi.

I'm an Undergrad student & we're designing an 8051 core.
 Could you plz tell me if it is likely to fit on
   'Altera Cyclone EP1C12Q240C8' ?

Will  Quartus II web edition(version 5.1)  be sufficient for all the
design flow steps(including programming) ? Or do we need a purchased
version?

Thanx in Advance.

Should be no problem, I just synthesised the Oregano 8051 (CPU only) and it 
only took 3211 LC's (27% of an EP1C12)

Yes, the webedition should be fine.  For any FPGA related questions I would 
use the comp.arch.fpga newsgroup.

Good luck with your project and don't forget to spend as much time on the 
design as on the validation!
