Any ffedback/experience would be welcome.
 
I'm pretty much ready to purchase but have to decide about adding a wireless card.  The location where this pc is going is not near a plug.  I have DSL which passes out a wireless signal or I can run a longish (12' or so? ethernet cord which is not very practical.
 
Is there any connectivity loss / speed degradation with the card?  I imagine one may notice this only with gamin but wondering if there's actual experience out there.
 
Thanks

Just to add to the above -
 
my understanding as well is these cards sometimes have driver issues especially with vista 64 bit. anyone experience this?
