Brian's original post, which has some great points, basically questioned whether FPGAs will ever become as ubiquitous as microprocrossors (and if not, why). He looked at a variety of issues, including software development challenges, verification, and tool support. His post inspired a good number of responses from people with their own opinions on the state of FPGAs, and why they are different than 'mainstream' processor design.
