   VHDL is sort of based on ADA....the MIL SPEC computer language (a mil 
spec mouse is an elephant!).  I have only done one VHDL design, and, I 
have to admit, VHDL is very powerful, but man, you sure to have to type 
in so much crap just to do a simple little function.

   I liked the book "VHDL for Programable Logic" by Kevin Skahiill.  
Some people don't like this book, but, I found it the easiest to 
understand of the various books I purchased on the subject.
