I wonder the following thing : can we route the PCI channel through an other channel ? A converter or an adaptater like in an external hard-disk (IDE to USB), thus, something like PCI to Ethernet. By this way, the computer would have two Ethernet connectors, one for the screen, one for the network and not necessarly a PCI slot inside. (And if one can or has to plug the keyboard and mouse on the screen, that will be good) Is it possible ?
