I've got this old 400MHz laptop running a minimalistic installation of Debian, and I need to give it wireless capabilities. I was looking for one of those usb-stick size devices, like the kind I've seen used on Windows boxes. (Doesn't need to have an external antenna.) In the process of googling, but I was wondering if any of you had a good experience with such a device. (The laptop does have PCMCIA slots, but I'd prefer to avoid dealing with PCMCIA if at all possible.) PerlCoder (http://indicium.us)
