If you have one of the models which b43 supports, and it works well enough for 
your purposes, that's fine. I've read for over a year that there would be 
support for the 4310, first in b43, then in some other module "being worked on," 
the truth is it still only works on Windows, not with the politically correct 
Linux drivers.

I'm tired of running a USB NIC on laptops, or paying hundreds more because the 
ones with the best price/performance have unsupported NICs.
