A Zedboard?

That thing is $500 each (after subsidies end) and is as big as a Buick!

Just the XC7Z020 chip on that board costs 5.777 BeagleBones each,
quantity one, from Digi-Key.

That is more than a little out of my league.


Peace.

LOL!  I got mine for a good deal since we buy a lot from Avnet, so it
was an easy step up from the Pandaboard.  (Cheaper than a Pandaboard
plus a Spartan kit...)

Heehee, and I see that *1* can ship immediately!
