For a cellular network, you obviously need to pay a monthly fee for the ability to connect. Some cards are dual mode and allow connect to either 802.11 networks if they are there or a cell phone network if a wireless LAN is not available. If the box says the card is 802.11b and g compatible that means it uses the 2.4 GHz band. Some cards say dual band and use the 802.11a protocol as well that is at the 5GHz band. That is important if there are a lot of other users at the 2.4G band so you don't have interference. There is also something called 802.11n that deals with multiple transmit and receive antennas but in general is less important unless there is an 802.11n network to which you are connecting. As far as brand goes, don't worry too much. They all use the same basic internal chips to connect. Going with Linksys is never a bad idea since you know you can get any drivers or help off their website. ill,

Do any of you have a wireless card for your laptop? I need to get one and wanted to know if one service or card is better than the other.

Joba had a rough spring last year too. all he has been doing is throwing fastballs. building arm strength. not worried. cycledan-they had mickey rest, and he re-injured himself. the difference now is that they know more about rehabbing injuries than they did back then.

That should give Yankees fans an idea of how long it will take A-Roid to come back. Mike Lowell had the torn labrum surgery last October.

I also have tickets to see Syracuse play in the Big East Tourney at MSG. However, 6 of the 10 teams have byes and probably won't play Wednesday. If they did it by record, we would have a bye but they just do it randomly. I will feel pretty bad if I miss my son's game so I probably won't go to the BE tourney. Well Jim Boeheim probably won't notice my absence but my son will. Wednesday the CYO basketball league starts their playoffs for my son’s team that I am helping to coach.

I think doctors used stone knives to operate and stitched people up with deer sinews back in those days. I have a torn meniscus cartilage in my knee. I rehabbed it and never had surgery despite the fact that the first doctor had me scheduled for surgery. Not saying that has anything to do with A-Rod but many people who have played sports have torn cartilage in their knees or hips and don't do anything about it. I find Joba's last two performances more troubling. Hopefully there is something wrong right now and he will fix it by the time the season starts. If not, Joba back to the Pen (might not be that bad) and Hughes into the rotation. I am not worried about the Mickey Mantle comparison.
