I don't think you HEAR very well :roll:
I said you can't download it.
You also DON'T NEED a license file for SOPC-Builder 2.8 (Nios 3.0). Just install and it will work. :P
EDIT: today I received News & Views Q1-2003. on page 10 I read that you can TESTDRIVE the Nios processor for Free. If...

If you write c-code for the Nios, always remember you are writing code for an embedded system. the Nios isn't the next juicy pentium to play games on and surf the internet. no, nios is ment to be used in embedded applications. i recommend you reconsider your approach, cause fopen...
SOPC Builder
you have to buy it. :roll:
the complete hardware + sofware kit costs 995$. good products cost money, this certainly applies to hardware system design.

Answer to Jayson's question

Unfortunately for Xilinx, I must concur with Loki.
I'm afraid Xilinx has to put as much as 10x the effort into Microblaze to achieve the same level as Altera...too bad, maybe a missed opportunaty.

I personally only use the command line debugger, because that suffices for me. If you work on complex designs, I can understand you want to use the third-party tools.

compile your Nios system with Synplify, Leonardo Spectrum,..
normally you can't synthesise your nios-vhdl/verilog-design after you compile it in synplify. this is because sopc builder puts low-level, architecture specific stuff in the vhdl/verilog which synplify wrongly translates.

i can't wait
sounds fantastic!
i can't wait to get my hands on one and run some benchmarks :D
i contacted my FAE and he replied with:
