I recently got a Digilent/Xilinx FPGA dev board, it has a 200K gate 
Xilinx Spartan, some static RAM, platform flash, various switches and 
buttons, PS/2 keyboard/mouse port, RS232 port, VGA port and 7-segment 
LEDs and indicator LEDs plus three 40-pin IDE style connectors for 
connecting whatever you like to the board. It's straightforward and does 
what it says on the tin. Cost is $140
