Hmm, I didn't know you could run FPGA stuff and NOT have SCH and PCB ready
and available.

imbedded design conference.

Actually it was worse.  I was there at the Embedded Design Conference and
talked to the Altium sales person who assured me that PCB & SCH was their
core area and they were pushing that at the show.  The conversation then
went on the things I did not like about the DXP/2004 PCB and the sales
person was having a problem understanding what I was talking about.  So I
suggested that she bring up the program and I could show it to her.  Then
the truth came out: At the entire show there was not a single license of SCH
or PCB.  The 10 or so demo PCs there only had the FPGA software and could
not even demo the SCH and PCB if a customer wanted to know about it.  So
much for the illusion that SCH and PCB is something they care about.
