My ultimate plan is to stick everything into a rack(s) in the basement. Then go from there to all my a/v equipment and computer desk. htpc, game consoles, media players and so on.
With hdbaset this is possible only using a single cat 5/6 cable. With the 2.0 hdbaset they now have usb, not 2.0 speed but better than 1.1.
Now if evga or someone else made a card that has hdbaset 2.0 in it, so instead of the hdmi/dvd/vga all there is is a rj45 connector.
I can see a few markets using this
work stations. plug the cat 5 into the back of the monitor add a few usb ports for keyboard and mouse and have a nice clean work station
home theatre pc this is what i am after stick it into the closet then run it to my tv.
one say soon I can see all media devices having hdbast. It is slowly comming
