Lots of copanies have class A's reserved... not very
many companies use them all...
o @home/rr.com share 24/8 for their cable modem users
o AT&T uses 12/8 for its broadband (T1, T3) users
o Eli Lilly uses 40/8 internally (but are only using
around 250k IPs)
o GE has had the largest network I've seen... they have
several class Bs and a class A.
o MIT has all of 18/8 IIRC
o HP has 16/8 IIRC, as well (all this can be verified
w/ whois -h whois.iana.org 16.0.0.0, etc)
There are different games-- who has the most IPs v. who
has the most IPs used. Think about all the IPs needed
to support all those AOL dial-up users.
