Want to be able to access your machine anytime, anywhere? Can't be bothered purchasing a domain name and configuring Dynamic DNS? Microsoft has a solution: the 'Windows Internet Computer Name' - a unique domain name for your computer. There is one small catch though: you have to be using the next-generation networking protocol IPv6 which, although thoroughly integrated into Windows Vista, isn't supported by most home routers yet.

"IPv6 will likely take 20 years to become commonplace because of the IPv4 infrastructure that has already been deployed."
You are confusing U.S.A with the world. Ipv6 is seeing wide and increasing deployment in both Europe and Asia (China and Japan in particular).
While it wont have worldwide deployment tomorrow it certianly won't be 20 years.
