Plasma TV components applied to password cracking

Plasma TVs are just one application

I don't see any significant link between Plasma TVs and FPGAs. FPGAs are used in so many things, Plasma TVs being just one of them.

Seriously, buying a Plasma TV for a few housand quid just to rip out the FPGA would be a waste of money when you can get for 100 or 200 Pounds tops, evaluation board and software included.

Making this connection is a really odd - maybe except for the fact that it makes for a good headline. But really, el reg peolpe, you can do better than that!
