Several years ago Sun released the Verilog source for the hardware designs of the UltraSPARC T1 and T2 CPUs under the GPL[1]. But you will be hard-pressed to find a "free" FPGA or ASIC platform to run said designs on. The world of digital hardware is even more proprietary and locked-down than most software developers can imagine. [1] http://www.opensparc.net/ -- Anthony J. Bentley
