Hmm, why do people need proof of this? Maybe I should read the archives. 
Tcp/ip can be bound to anything. Build an interface that sends electrical 
signals down two thin water streams, code a driver, and you can bind tcp/ip 
to water.

Anyway, that USB pdf link site is down and I can't access it now. I see 
there are some USB network hubs. Do these work with only USB network 
machines? Hmm, these could be slip/ppp then. An entire hub of slip/ppp...I 
wonder. The ones that interface directly with rj-45 are no hope. I wonder 
even if the signal actually coming out of the USB port is slip/ppp framed, 
then converted outside, or just straight ethernet framed off before exiting 
USB port. I do see some USB network card implementations are just a plug 
into the USB port with no wires exposed, and a rj-45 plugin dongle like 
thing. I guess I need one with wires exposed to cut into them, and with 
slip/ppp.

Surely there is a serial card with boundable driver out there somewhere? 
Help.
