PCI extension cable?

Where can I get a short cable that will enable me to have a short flexable connection between a pci card and the pci slot. I have a card that is too tall for my case. Kind of like a pci extension cable.

I have never seen such a cable and I do not believe such a cable exists. You must have a low silluette case. Can you swap cards between two different PCI slots? A cheap alternative might be to buy a new case. You can get a mini-tower for about $35.00 with power supply from a local computer store.

Ack! I'm on the hunt for one my self, well 6, and an agp one, possibly some isa ones too. Ha ha. Have a killer case mod idea, but I'm thinking might be faster to just make them.

I'm also looking for a similar extension cable, tell me if and where you find them
I take it no one has found them yet? If someone has, could you please E-mail me the information, I dont really want to solder wires between my board and cards :-P
I need to connect a PCI card to remotely located PC. Can you suggest any converters form PCI/ISA to ETHERNET, so that I bring the data from PCI card to PC through ETHERNET.
