But alas the software does *not* support the older chips.
You want to make a mod 5 years down the road, sorry we do not
support that model any more. TTL needs to be stock piled
now for the next +50 years.
I finally got 18 bit FPGA computer (DE1) design I like, that
is early 70's speed. 1.5 us core. What I am having problems
is finding a good book on Operating Systems from that Era
that is online, any one know a good book? I have software
that I need to write. I don't think it is over kill. If you want
over kill try this:-

and FPGA implementation of the Baby or SSEM which had 32x32 bits of
RAM. The
implementation uses around 1% of the Spartan 3E 1200K gates,
and that includes the logic to generate the VGA which is around 50% of
the circuit. I expect to get it on a 100K gate chip but that?s still
over-kill.
