Haha, so its official, i am (hopefuly) ordering the r3000t (see sig) this weekend. Also, as you can see from my sig i want to try LINUX (either SUSE 9.1 Personal or Mandrake 10.0 Official...what would you pick?) I know that HP uses Broadcom wireless, and as we know broadcom is very hostile when it comes to making LINUX drivers. I heard it is possible to install a WINDOWS driver using WINE. I haven't been using LINUX much yet, so I don't know my way around the command line scripts nor how to mod the kernel or whatnot. Is it possible for a joe like me to get windows drivers working on linux via WINE ?
