Personally I'd rather have laptops and such NATed than have them out
in the public IP space, these days. It might be nice to be able to have
private ranges that are globally unique, but using actual routed address
space just seems like unnecessarily asking for attacks.

And IP-based virtual web hosting is just *so* mid-90's.
