I could do it, but I’m yet to write my first testbench

With breakout board – it is. In addition that breakout board allows high frequencies (in GHz).

Is it any good for general prototyping (i.e. anything else than the soft core)?

Since I am in 3rd course of bachelor degree, there is no FPGA classes in my uni. If I will go for master degree, there will be FPGA class, but there will be only first steps to FPGA design… Actually, nobody here in uni work with FPGA like professional. One prof use Altera with Verilog, other one use Lattice for LED display programmed in ABEL language… No Xilinx and no VHDL. I am learning it only by myself.
Partially answering Your question: I am thinking of searching for a company which works with FPGAs/ASICs and could give me some work that I could do for free… Maybe this knowledge would let me to do the “breakthrough”

Whether you choose to get your entire training toward becoming a computer engineer in the classroom or through online courses, you may be on your way to a career that’s stable and financially rewarding. Maybe your electrical engineering and computer science knowledge will lead to the next big breakthrough in computer engineering?

Huge software bugs (even check syntax doesn’t work in ISE 11.4), frequency instability, shitty IP cores (like MIG), lack of documentation… I’ve bought Altera BeMicro devboard, soon about it here

Why migrating to Altera?
