Those buggars at Speedstream

Enough Googleing eventually lead to the discovery that Speedstream, in their wisdom, changed the underlying chipset in the 1021 card I bought without changing the darn model number. So I bought it with the understanding that it would contain an Orinoco chipset (which is supported under Linux) yet I got a card with TI chipset for which only a sucky binary driver exists. That sucks. Oh well, it was only $20 bugs. Not sure if it's worth my while arguing with Circuit City about that.
