Well, I had one made at a PC fix-it store.
Got a Spartan.

What I specified was a Intel Pentium M processor with a ipw2200: (Intel
PRO/Wireless 2915ABG)

Almost everything works - except for a internal to the bloard SD Card Reader,
for which there are no specs for. Big deal. If I want a SD card reader I will
buy one that goes to the USB.

Everything else worked right out of the box with Mandriva 2005.
