If you're targeting professional engineers, I'd worry that A. They could figure out the answer to these questions on their own, or if not, B. one of the large distribution companies would only be too happy to send out a sales engineer to assist with the decision making process. Are you targeting the hobbyist market? I'm not sure how much money they might have. |

Some thoughts in response to your comments:
> professional engineers > A. They could figure out the answer to these questions on their own. [harnhua] True - what they would gain by using our webapp is convenience and automated testing/evaluation.
> B. one of the large distribution companies would only be too happy to send out a sales engineer to assist with the decision making process. [harnhua] Probably only if one is buying enough FPGAs/CPLDs to pay for that sales engineer? I reckon there should be many small-/medium-volume projects staffed by professional engineers who wouldn't attract such a level of customer service from the distributors. Sales engineers who're skilled in FPGAs are probably in short supply.
> hobbyist market [harnhua] Although there's little money there, we'd really like to make FPGAs easier to use for students and hobbyists as well.
Any thoughts?
