The other feature I get from my NAT gateway (as I mention in another 
post) is the ability to run multiple computers on one IP address from 
my ISP, and without the ISP (easily, at least), knowing how many 
computers I'm running.

Can I get the same ability with the approach you mention?  I suspect I 
could, but I've never really fooled with proxies very much.
