What was wrong with using FPGAs?
Have you tried it out in an FPGA?
Interesting. Did you investigate FPGAs?
Isn't that what FPGAs are good for?
Aren’t FPGAs slower than ASICs though?
You should learn more about FPGA's!
Why would an FPGA-based computer be ruled out as an option?
Does this thing even exist on an FPGA yet?
Fpga's have the best of both worlds!
You definitely don't want an FPGA if those are your concerns.
