    Are you talking about Cat5 Ethernet switches? A nice thought, but not practical in terms of networking topology. While switches are not bound by the "5-4 Rule" the way hubs and repeaters are, every time you insert one into a network you are creating a collision domain. Having too many collision domains in a nework can actually interfere with communications and slow it all down to the point of being impractical.

    If you want to know more about this I highly recommend reading the book "Rock Solid Ethernet" by: Wayne Howell (yes....the same guy from Artistic License who created ArtNet).

    Hope this helps explain it a bit:)

    Ummm....we already can.....using the mechanical Iris in front of the projectors' lens.
