Yup, that's how I would do it.. that's the first thought that occured to
me anyway..

So, where are you moving to?? You're in Thailand at the moment right??
And, how to you Fed-Ex a file server.. how much does it cost to fedex a
computer?? curious.. in case I might ever have to move.. (:

Well, I asked them that.. and they said that they were concentrated on
ASIC design.. FPGA design is a very small part of their market.. they
are the standard with DC and VCS in the ASIC market.. so, they don't
work much on FC2.. that's why they don't sell FC2 but give it away as a
free gift when you buy other synopsys products.. I'm on my practical
training with the local representative of Synopsys products for the
moment..

with  metta,
