I had this thought today...networking via SAS or SATA as a speedy, short range networking tool akin to firewire's use. SATA in particular is ubiquitous, and offers 3gb/s of bandwidth currently.
I know SAS has SAS extenders, which act somewhat like ethernet switches. I also would think that you could theoretically program a driver for SATA that would enable it to use TCP/IP rather than I/O functions.
Thoughts?
