+"What is the boundary, in digital devices, between hardware and software? We "
+"can find it by applying the definitions: software is the operational part of "
+"a device that can be copied and changed in a computer; hardware is the "
+"operational part that can't be.  This is the right way to make the "
+"distinction because it relates to the practical consequences."
+msgstr ""
+
+#. type: Content of: <p>
+msgid ""
+"There is a gray area between hardware and software that contains firmware "
+"that <em>can</em> be upgraded or replaced, but is not meant ever to be "
+"upgraded or replaced once the product is sold.  In conceptual terms, the "
+"gray area is rather narrow.  In practice, it is important because many "
+"products fall in it.  We can treat that firmware as hardware with a small "
+"stretch."
+msgstr ""

+#. type: Content of: <p>
+msgid ""
+"Some have said that preinstalled firmware programs and Field-Programmable "
+"Gate Array chips (FPGAs) &ldquo;blur the boundary between hardware and "
+"software,&rdquo; but I think that is a misinterpretation of the facts.  "
+"Firmware that is installed during use is software; firmware that is "
+"delivered inside the device and can't be changed is software by nature, but "
+"we can treat it as if it were a circuit.  As for FPGAs, the FPGA itself is "
+"hardware, but the gate pattern that is loaded into the FPGA is a kind of "
+"firmware."
+msgstr ""
+
+#. type: Content of: <p>
+msgid ""
+"Running free gate patterns on FPGAs could potentially be a useful method for "
+"making digital devices that are free at the circuit level.  However, to make "
+"FPGAs usable in the free world, we need free development tools for them.  "
+"The obstacle is that the format of the gate pattern file that gets loaded "
+"into the FPGA is secret.  Until recently there was <em>no</em> model of FPGA "
+"for which those files could be produced without nonfree (proprietary) tools."
+msgstr ""
+
+#. type: Content of: <p>
+msgid ""
+"Thanks to a reverse-engineering effort, it is now possible to compile C "
+"programs and run them on the Xilinx Spartan 6 LX9 FPGA.  The tools do not "
+"yet support HDL (hardware definition language) code, though, so this does "
+"not offer a usable substitute for real digital chips.  Meanwhile, that model "
+"of FPGA is starting to get old.  These tools constitute a tremendous advance "
+"over the situation a few years ago, but there's a long way to go before "
+"FPGAs are fully usable in freedom."

+"As for the HDL code itself, it can act as software (when it is run on an "
+"emulator or loaded into an FPGA) or as a hardware design (when it is "
+"realized in immutable silicon or a circuit board)."
