Using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) to crack passwords

I have been looking into faster ways to crack passwords, not just Oracle database passwords but passwords in general and came across a good presentation by David Hulton titled "High speed computing & co-processing with FPGAs", this does seem to be one of the ways to go in the future for fast password cracking. Nice paper.
