Yeah, but you keep forgetting that my FPGA is doing more than just a counter. And what I do in my FPGA would take a whole rack full of SSI parts.


Yes, but Richard is really making comments about inappropriate use of FPGA - and I have seen examples similar to the one he cites. Better to come up knowing how to read a schematic and then move to FPGA than the other way round. Its a bit like only knowing a HLL and not being able to understand assembler.
