    I'm thinking about taking a shot at installing my Linksys WPC54G Laptop
    Wireless card and using NDISWrapper to install the driver. However,
    before I wind up with a ton of unnecessary grief, I would really like
    some opinions on what everyone thinks about using NDISWrapper to install
    wireless drivers. Is it pretty stable with all of the FC4 apps and
    interfaces, etc? Any installation tips for a Dell Inspiron 8000 would
    be greatly appreciated as well!

    Thanks in advance everyone...
