Do you have a sense if it is Win 2000 or if it is related to any specific wlan driver software? I'd think a basic list of cards / sw that often misbehave would be a good thing. That way, when we see a few adhoc devices in a meeting, the chairs could more specifically tell people running OS X / card Y to check their devices.
