Where did I ever say that leap was the way to go?  I just stated that it was
implemented at my last gig, using strong passwords and an aggressive
password change/history policy for the wireless users.  I wasn't the one
that set it up, and the C-Level did not want changes made to it due to the
amount that they had spent on the infrastructure based on the
recommendations of the prior network admin.

Now had we been newly implementing wireless in our facilities, I'd have gone
the WPA2 route and used the built in NICs in the notebooks and WPA2
supported APs.  For an added layer of security I'd use self-signed SSL Cert
and configure PEAP via GPO.  Another option is using IAS with a self-signed
cert as well.

To each their own.
