I just hope they won't drop any of their CPLD chips. It would be a shame if only way to set up a simple logic circuits without having to use 74xxx was to use FPGA.
Yep, 5V tolerant CPLDs are a wonderful thing when you're making hardware for retro computers it would absolutely suck if the 9500XLs get discontinued.
CPLDs also have the advantage of being non volatile. That can make your circuit simpler as you just add a socket and use an external programmer. FPGAs require external storage and more.
Indeed, they're really neat little devices and they're also dirt cheap.
