Apart from the basic incompability here, my opinion of IPv6 is that it
just gives you 2^96 more addresses to repeat all the old mistakes  
with.
Not quite..
2^96       = 79228162514264337593543950336
2^128-2^32 = 340282366920938463463374607427473244160

not quite.  let's posit 42 devices on the average lan segment
(ymmv).

  42*(2^64)  = 774763251095801167872
