The sFPGA board will support both features : as a PCI card plugged
in a PC, or as a standalone card. Or, at least, this is the way I am 
designing it... ;-)

The RAM on board are :
* 128 K Fast Static RAM
* 4 MB of SDRAM

Anyway, this will be the first generation of sFPGA, which can be improved
later. I hope ASAP the schematics will be available on the webpage, so
the design could be on debate, to improve it together.
