I think the real challenge for a kickstarter would be to offer attractive fpga development route. Currently xilinx prices their fpga-c dev tool at around $5K. My guess is that's the real limit , not the price of the zedboard.
- duskwuff 13y agoXilinx's official dev boards are all pretty expensive, but they tend to be all-singing all-dancing affairs, with largest-in-class FPGAs, tons of peripherals and interfaces, and enough little blinky lights to blind a goat. Third-party dev boards (like the ones from Digilent: http://digilentinc.com/ http://digilentinc.com/) tend to be much more reasonable.
