I know I'm going to get stoned for that, but hey, it's Monday anyway...

I actually *like* NLB.  It's a brilliant way to twist IP/ARP into
"create resiliency and load distribution across a few servers, without 
having to buy and set up extra boxes to do resilient load balancing".

Of course it's a hack, Cisco gear heavily dislikes it, and you really
do not want to have NLB cluster in the same L2 segment as anything else.

But still, brilliant :-)
