By the way, I totally disagree with you on this fact. Since the 
VirtexTools ( flop ) from Neil Williams nothing has been done from 
Xilinx in this way.

They limit the potential of their products so, implicitly their market 
share. With time, people won't believe in superior performance of FPGA 
anymore and they will go back to legacy Von Neumann architecture 
enhanced with massively parallel cores ...

Intel's teraflops chip uses mesh architecture to emulate mainframe



Go on Xilinx people, please release your products and let us do our job !
