[ale] 802.11g for linux?

[Jerald Sheets]

Yeah, but when you buy a laptop with a built in card that you have no
control over, you do what you can.

Advocacy is fine....zealotry is uncalled for.  


I happily parted with the 20 bucks to support a Linux company.  So many
people didn't support such companies in the past that one of the
greatest game programming outfits that were porting all kinds of games
to Linux went under.  (Lokigames)  I intend to do everything I can to
support Linux based companies to keep them alive whenever I can.

I'll waste 20 bucks on McDonald's next week.  How uch more important is
a wireless connection for my Linux laptop?
