Linux wireless adapter?

[mike Enriquez]

I am going to build a Linux destop computer for my wife. It has to be a 
wireless setup. Before I create a disaster, can any member of the group 
recommend  a distro and  wireless card  that will live in harmony  and 
protect my marriage.
I am open for any distro and any card.  What have you found to work?

If I build her a linux and computer and it will not connect to the 
internet she will want a windows machine. So be nice I don't want that 
to happen.

Thanks for you help.
