While I am on it. Can you help me learn how to simulate this design without any hardware. I would like to know how to go about it in Quartus. I have never done it before. Thanks again.

If you want proper simulation use modelsim. New Quartus versions do not have internal simulator(quartus 9.1 does).
Quartus simulator does not accept testbench style coding (only synthesis style code but you can fool it using synthesisable testbench. You can drive stimuli directly on waveforms or through this wrapper testbench).
Modelsim offers much better simulation e.g. reading from files or writing to files as well as driving stimuli from testbench in nonsynthesisable code freely.
You will need to choose between them two first and dive in then the forum may help with some specific issues.
