I stumbled upon this by accident a couple of years ago. Setup your internal network to start at 10.0.0.1 (or should I say…10.1), and you'll never need to type out a bunch of zeros again! My NAS has a static IP of 10.2. :)
I don't have a large network, so it's not too hard to remember. It's nice to know how to reach my Raspberry Pis from any machine, regardless of what I'm using them for or what hostname they have at the time (XBMC, AirPlay server, etc.)
