Alternative uses for ASIC Units.

[legendster]

What are some of the most practical uses of an asic unit built for mining bitcoins according to you guys?
I mean apart from using it as a heater or paperweight.

I get it, it's application specific but is there really no way to repurpose it?

Some of the more wild ideas would be for it to be 'upgradeable' with some plug in hardware that can turn it into an external 'graphic card' or 'processor'?

Any previous discussions on this particular topic here? (I am sure there are many)
