The "myth" that I've heard relates to links. From the comments on Matt's blog:
"500 sites under the same IP interlinked in some way will provide the same
benefit as 500 sites on uniques similarly interlinked all other things held
constant?"
The answer to this question almost has to be "no." A site with hundreds of links
from the same IP should not be treated the same as a site with hundreds of links
from other IPs. If it is treated the same, scientology-style fake links will
proliferate. If it is treated differently, then separate IPs do add value.
