http://www.fpga4fun.com/ has nice tutorials for VHDL and Verilog.  He 
describes how to get and install both Quartus (Altera) and ISE (Xilinx) but 
information might be a software revision behind.

And he sells at a reasonable price, some fun little FPGA boards.

Site has a forum, moderately active and good advice.
