I'm currently using the same machine to host a couple of different of  
my own domains, simply because its easier to set up multiple domains  
on a single computer than it is to set up multiple computers.  For  
example, learningtosee.org and czeiszperger.org don't get much  
traffic, so it didn't make sense to give them separate computers. I  
suppose that they could have been set up with virtual IP addresses...
