Turn your computer into a wi-fi hotspot

A recent video from the smart guys at Cnet explains how to share an Internet connection, from your computer to other wi-fi devices, whether you’re powered by XP, Vista or Mac.
The process is quite simple and doesn’t require any additional hardware or software, but it can reveal very powerful by allowing multiple use cases.
I’m wondering for instance if someone could use a VPN connection, set on the PC, to make a (wi-fi enabled) set-top-box access video rental services with geographical restrictions.
Any other idea?
