Gotta love transparent bridging anyway, its just so much nicer to work with.

Well.... sometimes the basic guys are really good (once I called up and 
the guy said
	"is this windows"
  "no, debian, a linux distro. I can plug in a windows box but that 
isn't the issue...."
	"good. look at /var/log/syslog..."

OTOH some of the "advanced" guys have been kinda useless. But overall 
its nice to have advanced support _with_ _a_ _brain_. Heck, you can't 
even hear the flicking of the manual pages...
