Dear Sir Grant

Option 3 is not an option because the hardware has a mechanism that prevents the computer from booting if you change the wireless device. Some has been written on that on the fsf.org website but no solution is being offered.

Option 2 - I agree! But when I tried to do that I got stuck because the trisquel distro has no menu for hardware drivers. I don't know how to do it and feel bad asking for help on here with installing a non free driver.

Short of getting rid of the computer or not going online which is what it's there for I have no option. Longterm somebody has to reverse engineer the b43 driver for broadcom as there seem to be millions of people in this dilemma.
