Well, I was looking for something "just good enough" and hoping to find
it around the famous Fry's Airlink 101 special of $17.  Ebay has some
older stuff going for less than $10 but is it worth it?  Probably not.

However, I am rapidly steering away from that idea.  The WRT54G is the
one I have wanted for a while based on it's hackability.  And I am
rapidly coming to the conclusion that I should get what I want, not what
I can get by with.

My budget constraints can be summarized by two important points:
- - I have two daughters in high school band and two boys in scouts.  :^)
- - I have a wife who supports my geekiness but would rather not pay for
it.  ;^)  (Don't tell her I said that!)

I was just attempting to minimize the outflow of cash.

I'll probably end up springing for the WRT54G.  In fact, late last
night, discussing what I was shopping for, my wife asked me why I don't
go ahead and get one.  :^)
