Just a note on this, both myself and one other fellow, on the Apsire
one, which is what I believe Anne is using, found that for some reason,
the LiveCD wouldn't connect properly (with NM or without) to a WPA2
network.  An install and quick update fixed the issue--also, this was at
least a month ago, so if there's a newer kernel in the current live CD,
the results might be different. 

In the very early 2.6.27 kernels, the ath5k was giving some people
(though not me) problems. 
Ubuntu still has it blacklisted by default, I believe.  (Judging from
Aspire One forums.)

usually no one dies.
