"Britain is catching the broadband bug. The start of self-install broadband and cuts in the price of fast net access via phone lines seem to have sent Britons barmy for high-speed net services. Some websites where people swap broadband information, such as ADSL Guide ( ADSL Guide ), have also reported a steep upsurge of interest. Also proving popular are the network hubs and routers that let people share their broadband link, be it cable or ADSL, between several PCs."

So, it appears that us automators were way ahead of the game in having home networks, and that we weren't mad after all :)
