If this can be generalized, then the academic situation seems good then. Matt
has solved the foremost problem: get
hardware into circulation and bring in some revenue. Then the question is how
to gain wider academic acceptance on
the software side. Since Mathworks and NI are arch rivals, I would think NI is
looking at how to do this and giving
Matt the assistance he needs. Maybe better Win support, as others have
mentioned. Maybe adding things that leverage
the hardware and the student version of Simulink isn't going to do, such as
user-defined Verilog code blocks that run
on the FPGA (and are easy to use from a Win GUI).
