Mark,

I don't know what HDBDOS is ... but I assume from your original email 
it's something you have to pay for.

DE1 board = 1 = yes
HDBDOS = ? = probably not
Fuzzy logic anyone ?

signal answer : std_logic;
signal DE1_board : std_logic := 1;
signal HDBDOS : std_logic := X;

answer <= DE1_board and HDBDOS;


John.
