Then you get your bill from your isp, $5 extra per device.

As far as I'm concerned, LaLa died when it stopped being the CD Trading community.

Well, I should say, it won't rival a dedicated GPU once you factor in cost.

FPGAs are general purpose logic gates that you can reprogram on the fly to do whatever you want them to do. I suppose you could configure them to do matrix maths, but they are not going to rival a dedicated GPU. Most hardware that utilizes a FPGA does so to simplify circut design, allow for circut redesign after a board has been built, and to cut down the number of external logic parts needed.

A CPU / GPU also has many orders of magnitude more logic gates than an FPGA has.

I think it might have been their flash video player having a poor implementation. For some reason it pegs my cpu at 100% and starts to glitch.
