Hi everybody.
I have an old NEC laptop kicking around that I am *considering* as a Plan 9
machine. However, it has absolutely no built-in networking devices. What is
the status of Plan 9 with regards to wifi cards and usb wifi dongles? Would
I be better off trying a card/dongle that provides wired ethernet?
The lappy is a NEC Vectra something, so if anybody has had Plan 9 working on
it, I'd like to know.
Thanks

John
