You bet.  Just got it last month.  I almost got the single line one (because
I already have a 4-port hub), then thought about how I was going hook up
more than one computer in my office with the Router down in the basement
where the cable modem is, with the cable line in.

sooooo...

I have a CAT5 cable in my office that runs under the baseboards and down
through the cold-air return to the basement.  In the office it's connected
to a hub, which allows me to connect my new G4 when (if I finally get one)
and I have a CAT5 port in Claire's office down the hall. A CAT5 port under
the island in the kitchen and one in the living room next to the couch.

Sweeet.

100Mbps internal network, and all connected to the same cable 'net cnx.
