Nios II Full license for DE2 Board

http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif Yes. Altera licensing and pricing is very confusing.

I now bought a Nios II Dev Kit Cyclone Edition from them (Digikey, ~750€), a license for Nios is included (unlimited) and also a lic for Quartus II (full ed, this for one year only). After one year, no more updates, but the Quartus II software itself should continue to run as is. I don&#39;t know if there will be restrictions to the functionality (as in the Web Ed.).

Here in Germany, the Altera distributors didn&#39;t even answer my mails concerning licensing alternatives, it seems that Xilinx would have been a better choice?
