This thing has good reviews.

For a laptop like that?

I just figured that one would be hard to find,for $15 at least, and this would be easier.

I'm really uneducated in the wold of mobile wireless cards it seems.

Also, what on earth are you using that old laptop for????

It uses full length mini pcie wireless cards, modern ones are half length. You are stuck with something like:

You will have to plug your antennas into 1 & 2 and leave three empty.

Since its Intel, it will have good Linux/FreeBSD support.

Why would i use something that works, meets my needs, and was free? Frankly does one need anything more then a dual core with 2gbs of ram for running watching videos and editing documents? But either way. thanks for the recommendation.
