Something tells me that many people in this ml will hijack your "video-output-device" and use it as a TOE over AGP/PCIe instead :-)

I intend that people should be able to buy this product and "hijack" it for uses I did not intend. If they want to turn it into a network card, I'd think that was very cool. :)
