If you are not multihomed then you probably will have a very tough
time justifying a public AS....especially when there is a range for
private ASs that most smaller and less complicated setups use all of
the time....

You may want to take a look at Halabi's BGP book as it is quite
practicial and spot on. it goes in to may different reasons for
needing and not needing an AS.....

Just to throw it out there, you may not even need BGP if you are not
multihomed.....
