I've bought the USB wireless adapter from Think Penguin. I'm in New York so it should be here soon. I will see about updating an entry to h-node.org. I have a handy URL address I could link here,too, about my system...instead of typing it all out. I'll just need to find it. Thank you for

Actually, It's FCC regulations that forced IBM to Whitelist their Wireless Cards. I have a possible solution, but it involves using non-free utility once and then you can remove it once the job is done. (well, I only know of non-free utils for this, there might be free ones that I'm not
