Free mini-PCI laptop wireless adapter

[anewguy]

I replaced the old wireless adapter in my old cheapy laptop (I got an old Gateway 200STM for $40 off craigslist). The adapter that was in it, an Agere Systems wireless adapter, website seems to indicate this is b only, and the driver will support WPA - I use WPA2 so I needed an updated adapter. I know in Windows XP Pro it installed just fine - never tried in ubuntu but would assume it will need a driver - possible the Windows XP drivers and ndiswrapper.

UPDATE: nobody has contacted me, so it's now open to anyone in continental U.S.

PM me with your name and address. First reply gets it and I'll mark the thread as "solved".

Moved to the Cafe, as it isn't a support request.

EDIT: Sorry. I thought you were referring to the Laptop itself.

Huummmmmm......I know "B" only is a mark down, but I really thought someone could use this for free. Oh well, no replies - so I'll just close this and toss it.
