That's why in the other thread I compared it to the way TV's used to
be...they charge you for extra hookups even though there is no other
resources being consumed.   Same thing with 6 computers on a cable modem -
you are not using any more IP's or bandwidth than you could with one
computer, so why should there be an extra charge?
