I would like to say that what Chris said about Dell locking out things
is always true. I don't know Dell's policies and I don't know the background
of his statement but, I just bought the Penguin Wireless-N card for my Dell
Latitude 6430u and it works perfect. Which you can pick up here:

I just plugged it in and instantly upon booting it was picking up networks.
Dell isn't completely hostile to the open source movement (I know, not
free). If I am correct, they actually give you the option of having Ubuntu
installed on some systems. They at one time made a big push in that
direction as well as having AMD chipsets. So, I wouldn't say they are
completely hostile to at least "Open Source" albeit that IS still proprietary
software, it's a movement in the right direction...
Aparently the only example for this I have found is this:
http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/dell
So their support has dwindled since I last checked aparently.
Anyways, Thanks Chris for making a great product that works. I'm glad to be
free with my laptop.
