[lug] Linux laptop/wireless recommendations

[Nathan Berry]

I "had" Ubuntu working on a Dell D800.  In order to get the wireless to work
I used the LINUXANT software that let me load the Windows driver.  It worked
perfectly.  I ran vmware, created a virtual machine, and ran XP Pro in the
machine.  Then my company replaced my notebook with a Dell 830.  As of yet,
I have not been able to get LINUX to work :-(  I want my old machine back!
