Hi All!

I'm re-deploying a very plain Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop, that used run WinXP, as a Lucid Lynx box. It's to be used as a training laptop - employees use it to read training material, watch instructional videos, etc. and Ubuntu has worked out very nicely for this on another laptop - very low maintenance.

This laptop has a built-in 10/100 ethernet NIC, and I was wondering if anyone has a strong recommendation for one of the USB WiFi NICs for a modern Linux. I.e., there are several listed on NewEgg that _should_ work, but I'm interested in real-world experience. Also, there are several very tiny USB "stubby" NICs that are so small that they can be left in. These would seem to have very limited antenna strength. Anyone tried one of those and tested coverage and signal strength?

Thanks in advance,

-Jeff Mings
