The US Government has told departments to make their systems “IPv6-ready” by 2008.

LOL oh boy oh boy oh boy!

Europe and some colleges have already started to deploy this. Pretty cool stuff but i see a very very very slow transition into this. Espically since both IPv4 and 6 can be going at the same time.

ya I've been watching IPv6 for a few years now.. still haven't had to worry about it.

I can memorize ipv4 with no problem, and network admins always have critical IP's memorized..

how in the world do you memorize ipv6 ip? thats just insane

mac addresses are bad enough to talk about over the phone..

ugh
