Is there an up-to-date feature list available?

I was thinking... (DANGER Will Robinson!)
This whole PCI / PCI-X / PCI-e ... interface thing.
1) I saw a photo awhile back of a card with two bus connectors.
Turn the card upside down and plug it into a different type slot.
This would take careful consideration to make it fit physically,
but would get support for two busses with one board.
2) There are applications where you would want several of these
cards. For example, Wall Street traders often have several monitors.
Many machines are short on slots. Laptops tend to have none at all.
There are applications where you would want the card some distance
from the computer.
a) If it had a IEEE 1394 (firewire) interface, you could hook up
several cards without running out of slots.
b) Ethernet would allow much longer distances than firewire,
Is there a way to provide Ethernet without having to add a CPU,
memory, ROM, etc. ?
