That's a great idea for machines with PCI ports.  On laptops, netbooks, 
and USFF machines, perhaps USB-to-ethernet/wifi adapters will also work.

The Zino HD is a USFF, and we didn't have any usb-to-ethernet adapters 
at the time.  Nor do we have a WiFi access point.  Nonetheless, an 
excellent tip!
