No way.  Using Linux and Netfilter is great.  I'm just saying that, 
since I live in a tiny place, and I would like to play with the PC 
without worrying about breaking the network, maybe a router would be 
nice to have.  For $10 to $20 the router would also make a good backup 
for the Linux router.
