| Sounds like the way forward fryke. Unfortunately for me I don't have a PC at home, so even some of the so called techies are of little help to me, unless they start pulling the 'ping' and 'tracert' DOS commands out of the box. If you say 'UNIX' or 'Mac' to them you can almost hear them filling up their pants.
The techie who came to install my cablemodem service at my new house was impressed with OSX and airport though. He came in and asked where I wanted the cablemodem. I told him to stick it behind the TV cabinet. He looked at my a bit odd, but didn't say anything for a while, but then asked how I was going to connect my PC into it. I said I had a base station and that got him worried. However once he had the cablemodem up and running I just plugged in the base station, turned it on and opened my iBook (hadn't even bothered turning it off in the move). Everything up and running - took less than 10 minutes from him walking in the door.
