Anyone with Xilinx SP305-board ?

Here is a tip : provide information and you will get information back. Spit the dummy, and you will get ignored...

Well, others seem able to get answers to questions ? perhaps, you should work on your skills, and not throw the toys out of your cot ?

In engineering, you _are_ going to need the skill of getting information you require, and a rant is counter-productive - or do you not plan employment in engineering ?

and the point of that rant is what, exactly ?

If you have a specific issue, like an error in a schematic, point that out, and it will likely be corrected.

Xilinx are not engaged in the retail end of the market. Their customers are designers and engineers. Walmart is a retailer.

Hmm, well, _that_ is a shocker of a web site - all froth, and no substance. I hope Xilinx do NOT copy that.

John,

I have taken a new direction: when insulted, ignored, and railed against unjustly when all I offered was help, I press "ignore" so that I never have to experience your unhappy existence, again. I can not solve all the world's problems, and I must accept there are those who are so intent on being miserable, and causing others pain, that I can have no positive influence whatsoever.

Good luck.

Hallo Austin ! Hvorfor ha dere ikke en kundestøtte på epost !

That's about the most rude thing anyone could say to a Xilinx employee.....If you feel insulted, i can understand that.

Lucky you ! Thats the E-mail Im looking for , can you discover this secret "suopprt-mail-adress", or is it classified ? Like the aliens at AERA-51 ? Powered på chips from Xilinx ? Ha-ha-ha-ha.

One should not mess with stuff like that..

land

Well, we understand Norwegian. It translates to:

"Why do you not have customer service via e-mail?"

If you're going to spit the dummy over the fact you have to use a web browser instead of an email client, well.. grow up.

Also, as someone else said, if you don't supply any useful information it's impossible to help you.

what

it's

I don't think you quite understand the issue. I have tried to join Xilinx support, but I got an email stating that I could not do that. And when I was pissed off by that, all I got in reply from an apparently Xilinx employee at this newsgroup was that I had to spend real money to get support from Xilinx. Well, I spent $600 . That's real money to me. Xilinx is way out of line in terms of customer service. And arrogant messages on news don't shape up their apperance either.

John, you just misunderstood what Austin wrote, before this thread derailed, He wrote: "Spending Real money for a product makes you a customer (not a student)".

That means: "Because you have spent real money, you are a customer, not a student, and Xilinx will treat you as a real customer". Austin meant to be positive and re-assuring.

John, I suppose we are both us> > I don't think you quite understand the issue. I have tried to join Xilinx
