    For the New Dell systems, they offer 2 different intel cards and one Dell card. Can someone explain the significance of the Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card? I'm going to college and need a good wireless card and was wondering if the $50 difference between this and the IntelĀ® 3945 802.11a/g Mini-card is worth it.

    Any help is appreciated.
