uhmm... lets say I'm from Europe, where alls ISPs deliver routers when you sign up and you never needed anything but an ethernet card to reach the net (ignoring the long gone days of modems). What is it with AOL and client software? Do you really need anything but an ethernet card if you are using AOL? Why would even common Joe want that?
