Shesh how many times do I have to say : The IP range of IPv6 vs v4 is not
the deciding factor. If that was the only benefit of ipv6 I'd have to agree
that v4 will do for now. Consider the benefits of dynamic routing, security
(well kinda) and ease of set up to name a few the only hard bit is to
understand what .....

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:20:xx:10:1a:xx
inet addr:xxx.xxx.xx.x  Bcast:xx.xxx.xx.x  Mask:255.255.255.248
inet6 addr: 2001:600:101b:500:220:edff:fe17:1891/64 Scope:Global
