Quoting "Mike Marion" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

And from what I understand.. it can takes days to emulate even a few clock ticks from the designs. There are/were some hw systems that could far outpace software testing at one point (Ikos comes to mind) but last I heard, general computing CPUs had outpaced them.. and they were crazy expensive too.

Having an IC design/layout is a LOT different then having an emulation of the finished process(or).

Oops.. I'm thinking the physical design/test vs the earlier vhdl type stuff.
