T&T: Wireless Air Cards

[Ted Stehle]

Unless you absolutely must, I would delay converting to VISTA. I purchased a 
new desktop two weeks ago and am running VISTA and have had problems with 
some software programs (none marine related) not running properly. 
Fortunately I have my laptops running on XP so I haven't lost anything.
