I bought one of the little stubbie recently,it was employed on a Win7
box. I read both packages in the store and the manufacture specks were
same same. I went for the stubbie,and it works great.I was worried that
it had to go through two wall,but it yielded full signal strength. Not
very scientific,but very pleased.

Hi All!
I'm re-deploying a very plain Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop, that used
run WinXP, as a Lucid Lynx box. It's to be used as a training laptop
- employees use it to read training material, watch instructional
videos, etc. and Ubuntu has worked out very nicely for this on another
laptop - very low maintenance.
This laptop has a built-in 10/100 ethernet NIC, and I was
wondering if anyone has a strong recommendation for one of the USB
WiFi NICs for a modern Linux. I.e., there are several listed on
NewEgg that _should_ work, but I'm interested in real-world
experience. Also, there are several very tiny USB "stubby" NICs that
are so small that they can be left in. These would seem to have very
limited antenna strength. Anyone tried one of those and tested
coverage and signal strength?
Thanks in advance,
