Well, you look up your IP address to illustrate how connecting works. Just typing in localhost is a magic word that doesn't teach the user how connecting to the server works. I at least want to explain that "localhost" isn't a Minecraft specific keyword. The section on LAN connections may possibly cover that though. Also, what's special about 127.0.0.1?
I honestly don't know much about networking or server hosting, so I won't be able to do that by myself, else it's going to be horrendously error ridden. For instance, isn't there a better way of looking up another computer's IP address on a LAN network?
But I'm getting off topic: What I really want to know about is style. How is the style of text? What do you think of it in terms of tone and quality?
