FPGAs are effectively useless without decent tools. However, they have to pay the bill for the software from what they get from selling the silicon. So the cost of the software has to be dissolved in the cost of silicon. Plus, if you are going to deal with lots of small businesses you might run into trouble with support etc. There are many money factors here... :-) JW |
