Comparison between versions of Quartus II

Hi, I am new to Altera FPGAs. What is the difference between Pro, Standard and Lite editions of Quartus II? Also What is the Altera equivalent of Xilinx Chipscope? Thanks, Arvind Gupta...

OK thanks. From the table it shows that Quartus 2 lite does not have a synthesizer. Is that true. If so, how will HDL description get synthesized to hardware. Also, as per the download page, MegaIPCore library is free with lite edition where as per this table it is not. Which one is true. Pls. note I may be missing something here (I am new to this Altera domain).
