I need two identical boards with Xilinx and Altera parts on them for
some "fun" at home. I found this page on the net

If you buy the Nanoboard, you can get plug-in FPGA modules for both Altera and Xilinx devices. You also have on-board configuration flash, if you require that.

Using Altium's software, you can seamlessly target the same design to both Altera and Xilinx devices, something which I've actually done.

What sort of designs will you be "playing" with?
