The local rep came out a day or two after I posted my original message, to demo
FutureDesigner for us.  They were able to produce a simple sample session, but
could not get two of our designs to work.  Later, back at the rep's place they
were able to get a drawing out of a non-registered PLD, and sent us the result.

However, they were not able to get, so far, our complicated 22V10 design to
work.  (This is a design, by the way, that I had trouble fitting on a "D" sized
drawing.)

From what I understood from the reps, FutureDesigner was not yet release!  But
they expected it to be so in the next few weeks.
