	This almost answers my question. So in your mind there is a video card
that uses both slots? The video connector slot has enough signals to make a
composite video signal, correct? I thought just to do this would take up only
the video connector. This is what I meant by form factor. You could have 2 cards
in these slots, except the extended video connector has no power.
	This means you have to be careful of what you put in these slots. And
this is my concern. It also appears that there is a byte wide bus available.
Are A2000 genlocks also using these connectors?
