Not necessarily.  I have run standalone machines for home offices
without networking on cable or xDSL setups.  I believe there is a
sizable number of users with broadband connections whose needs lie
between "serious" office LAN-type setups and the "56kbps dial-up a
couple of times a day to retrieve mail and surf the Web" users.

Indeed.  As stated above, my focus is on those of us who do not run
server applications but do find a constantly connected PMMail/2 client
or any other email client more than enough for our purposes.
