Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I love Linksys and it was a no brainer picking up this card for my new wireless setup. It works like a charm (no complaints)
Cons: I dropped 1 egg due to the installation. It took about 3-4 tries to install it on Windows 7 (Having to uninstall it, and reset the computer over and over again). Rather then having the drivers on the disc and being able to install the utility later, they have an "installation program" which doesn't like Windows 7. It requests that you run the program, it shuts down the computer (then you're supposed to install the card) and then when you reboot the computer it continues installation.
Because of this the computer would restart, and then Windows would block the installation program so you'd get an incomplete installation :(

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Easy Install, Works with Windows 7 64-bit (reviews which say otherwise are wrong) VERY hard to find right now, Not crazy Expensive, No dropped connections or issues connecting
Cons: Drivers on disc NOT 64-bit compatible, windows is able to update to 64-bit drivers if you can use a wired connection to perform the update, GIANT antenna, looks large even on the back of my rather large case (Antec 900)
Other Thoughts: For those of you with 64-bit OS you will need a wired connection to get this thing running: Do not install software from CD. Simply put the adapter in your PCI slot, then tell windows to use the driver found on the CD without installing the silly Linksys software. Use a wired connection to update the driver automatically through windows and it should give you a fully functional 64-bit driver, no internet searching necessary.

Pros: solid, works.
Cons: NO WINDOWS 7 DRIVER SUPPORT FROM LINKSYS.
Using the Vista driver is spotty on both 32 and 64 bit. Read around the web.
