Getting Started

Im taking a class in digital design, and we've been asked to purchase the up2 board (altera-max-plus-II based). Is this board big enough to run nios w/ linux 2.6 or MicroC/OS-II? If no...

Some random thoughts re-reading this post.

1. MAX ++ isn't even distributed anymore. It's all part of Quartus.

2. There are 2 Quartus' Quartus (pre 2000) and Quartus II (post 2000). No Quartus III that I know of.

3. Use up to date programs and boards, using old stuff won't prepare you for the workplace as well as a new board and the new technology that goes with it.

that's all... :-)
