[computer-go] FPGA

[David Stafford <david_stafford@xxxxxxxxx>]

I know little about FPGAs.  Could I ask some questions of those
of you who are knowledgeable?

How fast are FPGAs compared to a modern CPU?
How "big" are they in terms of number of gates or high-level circuits?
Are they reconfigurable on-the-fly or is it too time consuming?
Would it be practical to implement a neural-net simulator in an FPGA?
What does it cost?

Thanks,
David
