You caught me just before i said this ;-> 
Now - if those intel folks listened they would be making a killing with
their NICs on Linux. They have a paper at OLS to talk about how they get
influenced by the Linux people on how to improve their hardware - so

Note, this would entirely solve what Andi and the SGI people are talking
