Kelly,

  I am using a D-Link DWL-122 with my MBP and it works just fine.  OS
X sees it as a Prism 2 chipset and KisMAC uses it natively.  I have
also used it successfully on other systems with both Auditor and
BackTrack.

Other than having to use Rosetta every once in a while to get a DMG
to work correctly, I do not see any problems with the MBP.  I have
Windows XP installed under Paralles but have not spent any time with it.
