Folks

Sorry was looking at the wrong part. Same chip and speed only 5200 le's

Across all lines they range from 11 bux to 1300 bux.

Onwards and upwards! 11 bux suits me for now!

I forgot to mention that for smaller projects the MAX 7000 family CPLD
from Altera is a nice alternative.  These are EEPROM based so you do
not have to configure them at power up like a FPGA.  The lines are
starting to blur between CPLDs and FPGA because some manufacturers are
offering FLASH based FPGAs and the like.
