Neal: I'd vote against the Broadcom board. Broadcom refuses to create a Linux driver, so you're stuck with ndiswrapper to get it to go. I have one on a Windows laptop and it just doesn't work. Connectivity is spotty at best and it is a very balky board. I think you can expect trouble with Broadcom.I'm about to order a hp amd64 notebook zv5000z series. There are 2 choices for wireless, but not much info on what the chipsets are. Anyone know if there is any problem with FC3 on this machine?
Networking choices are:
1) 54g(TM) 802.11b/g WLAN w/ 125HSM/SpeedBooster(TM) 2) 54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth
The SpeedBooster sounds like a Linksys card. I've not used the one you listed, but I have had good luck with Linksys gear in the past. I couldn't find data on the chipset; maybe that's a question for HP's presales support folks.
