Re: [AVR-Chat] FPSlic

As an aside (this doesn't refer to AVR's), Altera will evidently give you 
a 6-month license for their programs for CPLD's (MAX+PLUSII and Quartus).  
After the 6 months is up, you can just renew it free.

The license isn't even needed if you just want to program the CPLD's with 
an already assembled file (.pof).  It is needed if you want to write code 
for them.
