I really would like to see dhcp removed.  It should be an additional
choice.  This would really speed things up.  I have to wait almost 10
minutes because I have 3-4 network cards in my machine.  They all have
static IP's.  I do not use dhcp.  If/when I do use it I have most IP's
assigned so that the machines are accessible at the same locations.  Most
people I work with do not use dhcp.  When I have multiple ISP's.  Usually
one one assigns IP's via dhcp.  In that case I would select dhcp.  I
really dislike it as a default.
