Dan,

	I have both....  I use the computer as a router and firewall for my 
connection ot the internet, and a hub and wireless router on the inside for  
parts of my LAN connection to the computer router.  

	Pros and Cons of using the computer as a router
	
		con:  I need an extra box and associated $$ to do it... (although by 
recycling old hardware, you can probably save a lot of $$)

		pro:  I get to use the MonMotha firewall, ssh and other goodies on my 
router.  
		       Only one IP address on outside interface

		       Firewall box is separate from the rest of the LAN

Cheers,

Ben
