Most users are not
networking geeks.  They like NAT because NAT boxes make what they want
to do so easy.

presumably they don't realize that the NATs are making it hard 
to do other things that they might want to do.

I wonder...how many of these folks really want network address 
translation, versus those who just want the other things that
NAT boxes often do?   (DHCP, firewall, hub, router, all with 
really easy setup)

maybe we need to make it as easy to connect a small net to the 
Internet, as it is to connect a host.
