      Irregardless of that, I always thought the whole point of a DDoS attack was
quantity of hosts, not relying on quality of connection.

I thought we were theorizing anyway.  ;)

Not to mention that many IP's may be set to one device, yet there are 
multiple things NAT'd behind it.
Are there any devices which perform non-static NAT and can forward
significant DoS traffic? 8-) Perhaps if it's just a single flow, but this
kind of DoS traffic would be rather unusual.
