[Coco] CoCo3FPGA, FPGA Development, and GIME replacement

[Leonard Miller]

I have been following the discussions about the CoCo3FPGA for some time.  If
I was to purchase a FPGA board which one should I get?  I know that the FPGA
boards are boards that allow the user to use software to program hardware,
but that's about it.  I believe the guys working with this use a couple
different boards?  This would be a HUGE endeavor on my part, but it might be
fun to learn something new as long as I don't get overwhelmed doing it:-)!
>From what I've seen so far; I can use a current computer monitor, but what
about storage?  Can the board interface to an IDE type drive?  How do I move
software back and forth between what I currently have (coco3), and the
board.  Also, what type of power supply do I need to power the board?

I second (or third?) that!.

"Design Freeze", a concept that if not followed will keep the R&D in a loop
never reaching (or reaching late if at all) the goal to have something go
from the drawing board into production. Seen that happen all the time,
unchecked it can kill an organization.
