   Thanks for the info.   
      
   However, I do note that the URL above relates to an F5D70_00_   
   and it says, "For the more technical savy this wifi card uses an   
   Atheros chipset."   
      
   According to the info I have from my potential purchase source,   
   the F5D70_10_ uses a 'Ralink RT2500 chipset' !
