To which they'll reply: we can't write drivers for Linux because the kernel 
has no stable IEEE 801.11 core and its API changes on a weekly basis.

Anyways, wireless support in Linux is pretty much a nightmare. Only 2 to 3 
year-old cards are supported. Not a single USB wireless card is supported in 
the kernel.
