2:48 PM - Wireless
I just got a refurbished thinkpad and I'm working on getting wireless up. Here are some helpful references:

The linksys WPC54GS version 2 is a Broadcom chipset so avoid it if possible. I believe you must use an ndis wrapper with this card. I've managed to get that working,, but using a native driver is certainly better.
