It doesn't have built-in wireless, but I've been happy with my Compaq Presario 2170ca, dual-boot Mandrake 9.1/WinXP. It was about the cheapest thing on the shelf at Future Shop. Don't have PCMCIA initialize at boot time though. It will hang. I don't know the work-around 'cause I have no PCMCIA devices. -- Ian Stephen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://smtp.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
