Sir, you need some corrections on the FPGA prices. It's more like $30 per chip for a descent sized part. Yes they can be larger than the other chips, but that's because of all of the routing resources inside. If FPGA's were $30K per chip, nobody would be using them and there's be a lot more ASIC's out there.
My god that's the worst sound I've heard in years. Talk about population reduction from all the suicides of the poor saps who have to drive it everyday. Let's hope for an anternate route.
As long as it receives the 1's and 0's, what's to worry about the quality of cables. Analog signals, yes, can be maintained on higher quality cables, but digital...
You got ripped off.
