It really depends, what you are trying to do with them, for most cases
the spartans are OK.

What about www.xilinx.com ?

But serious, we can't help you too much, until we know what you're

Compatible in what sense ? Some chips (some spartan2, 2e, 3) are too 
small, to have anything usfull done, however, you could get the uClinux 
on it.

Get a small Evaluation Board (like the Xilinx $100 spartan3, or better, 
you can ask again here), buy/install the EDK, install the elf-tools, the 
uClinux sources, and start playing ;-)
