    So I installed Vista this weekend, and I just used all of the lenovo drivers and software. I ran windows update and it found an update for the Thinkpad 11ABG Wireless MINI PCI Express Adapter. I went ahead and installed it. It upgraded the driver version from 7.1.0.90 to 7.2.0.190 and it was HORRIBLE. The connections that I had 100% on would drop to 60%. I was constatnly in the yellow and had no range. I rolled back the driver to 7.1 and now its fine. So just an FYI for all the vista people that the Windows Update "newer" driver is worse than the Lenovo one.
