I havn't heard of that.
you can buy USB-Blaster at terasic http://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?language=english&categoryno=53&no=46 I recommend you to buy DE0 board / DE3 board or something from Terasic. this is not so expensive and many information on the web.- Mark as New

No you must have an Altera USB Blaster or 100% compatible cable (such as the cheaper eeblaster (http://www.entner-electronics.com/tl/index.php/eeblaster.html)) to use the Altera tools.
