Yup. but isn't that the point of an FPGA? ;)

I mean... basically to build a custom, application specific, chunk of 
logic. If it's a customized CPU (er, say a DSP...), then all the more fun.

It's tempting to get something like an FPGA test board and poke 
something into it, though.... but I feel this will take some of the "I 
built it myself" satisfaction from the project.

.... I still have to figure out how to pare this sucker down so I can do 
the big clacking pile of relays version of it ;)
