RE: Laptop Considerations

Thanks all for your feedback on the atheros chipset. I appreciate it.

Time to re-visit the madwifi project :-)

Chris, I think the Aironet has its own chipset which was designed for
cisco. I don't believe it's Atheros.

Also, there is a new book under the title: "Wi-Foo: The Secrets of
Wireless Hacking". I've ordered it and I'm expecting it to be
delivered tomorrow. I read the description, and the author seems has
tackled all those wifi issues for linux. I will let you know as soon
as I come across those chapters.


Kind regards,

PAST, n.
That part of Eternity with some small fraction of
which we have a slight and regrettable
acquaintance. A moving line called the Present
parts it from an imaginary period known as the
Future. These two grand divisions of Eternity, of
which the one is continually effacing the other,
are entirely unlike. The one is dark with sorrow
and disappointment, the other bright with
prosperity and joy. The Past is the region of
sobs, the Future is the realm of song. In the one
crouches Memory, clad in sackcloth and ashes,
mumbling penitential prayer; in the sunshine of
the other Hope flies with a free wing, beckoning
to temples of success and bowers of ease. Yet the
Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the
Past of to-morrow. They are one -- the knowledge
and the dream. (The Devil's Dictionary)
