I really like USB 2.0 wireless G adapters like today’s deal of the day.  Do you know why?  Because I’m completely awful at putting together computer hardware components!  I remember getting my first wireless router some years ago, and rushing out to buy a wireless card for my desktop PC.  Now, when it comes to installing PC components, I’m pretty sure it doesn’t get any easier than slapping a wireless card inside an HP Pavilion.  That's assuming you're a competent adult, of course.  After fiddling with the thing all afternoon, I ended up paying my neighbor to fix the damage with a 12-pack of Coors.

What makes USB technology so great is that it’s literally foolproof.  You just plug it in. Done!  No removing the CPU case.  No screwdrivers.  No soldering.  Using today’s deal, you can plug the USB 2.0 adapter into any relatively new computer and start surfing the Web wirelessly without even installing any drivers (even though it comes with a driver disc).  That, my friends, is progress.  If your PC is still wired to the wall, you’re pretty much holding us back as a species at this point.  I’d hate to see natural selection weed you out, so do yourself a favor and plunk down $14.99 to join us in the 21st Century.  You’ll like it here:  There’s Dippin’ Dots!
