It's usually on by default, and requires the user to do nothing (on the
router, and the clients).

The one problem I have with DHCP on a modem/router is that most of them
just dole out IPs, they don't do local machine name resolution.  So you
can't work between machines by using their hostnames, you have to know
their IPs.  Related to that, you don't get good domain names applied to
all of your machines.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
