So I did finally get the wireless card working, the broadcomm brand for wireless cards is bad enough, but then I have a strange model on top of that which most solutions wouldn’t fix. I finally found a way to make it work though. Without the wifi issues, ubuntu is 100% better then windows, everything else works great and out of box, and there is a huge selection of FREE programs.
I’m stuck on Windblows through the Vista because of fucking Quickbooks that uses .NET crap that doesn’t run under wine. Someone needs to write a professional business accounting app for linux.
Oh, so thats wahts on the laptop
damn broadcomm BCM43xx wifi card… it’s nothing but trouble
