Did you buy the Zync ZedBoard yourself? How much did it cost? What are the specs?

You can buy it via Avnet (US distributor) for $88.99 + $8 (or so) S/H. They sent me a promotion code THXNN6W for free shipping. It is an entry level Zynq processor (single ARM core, pretty decent FPGA capabilities). It runs linux well. Remarkable learning potential for $100!

You can download the Xilinx IDE Vivado WebPack for free.

Both Avnet and Xilinx require creating a (free) account.
