It was? During my stint at XKL, I was told the Toad-1 I was working
with was an FPGA implementation. Maybe it was an experiment, but it
seemed to work pretty well. But then, I was a telecommuter, so maybe
some information was jumbled in long-distance transmission.
You guys probably have more information about this than I do, but my
understanding was that the Toad-1 CPU required multiple FPGAs, CPLDs,
and other logic, while the Toad-2 CPU is a single FPGA.
