    Is it possible to get a intel Wi-FI Link 5300 Mini Card wireless card to work with Santa Rosa Notebook? Or I would need to use the 4965 AGN mini card wireless card?

    Hey - it better! I'm awaiting delivery of mine!

    But seriously, I'm told it does...

    Here is a paste from a seller:
    ______________________________________________________________
    Attention:
    This card can only work on Intel 94x/96x and Higher mainboard chipset base on Intel Cerntrino brand issue.
    IBM and HP laptop can't use this adapter as per as before. because system BIOS haven't update.

    ______________________________________________________________

    Now, I assume HP is out, due to its restrictive 'bios white list', and the IBM, I don't see why not.

    HTHs.
