I have got to go check this out. I have an older version of it (CC3FPGA) 
running on the digilent spartan board - looks like i need a newer board now 
judging by these posts...

Just tried this out myself... awesome!  Thank you Gary!  And thanks
Boisy for putting together the DriveWire driver too.

BTW.. This is running DriveWire at 460kbps, and we may be able to go
even faster...  25Mhz cpu, 4x speed DriveWire..  the ultimate NitrOS9
machine?
