Wireless adapter

Still can't get why there is no wireless connectivity integrated into the mobos...

What adapter would you suggest to go with new rig?
I guess no point in looking at G anymore...

Thanks!

I suppose that's because most desktop systems will be hooked up to a wired connection rather than an erratic wireless one.

You should look at mini-ITX if you want built-in WiFi.

I'd rather use wireless than route 50m of cable round the house to my router...
Anyway, does it really matter what usb or pci card I buy?
Is Belkin or Netgear or whoever better than anyone?

Can't find details of what chip is put into these things... I'd prefer the Intel ones as they seem more reliable..
