This is wonderful news.  Now all we need is for the win32prn project to
show some serious progress and we will have some current support in two of
the worse areas of hardware devices.

I can live without WPA for a bit, but its getting tougher to find 802.11b
cards, let alone ones supported by Jens drivers(I just bought one of
Lewis' Cisco350 cards just to have a spare).  It would be fantastic to be
able to buy a new laptop and not have to worry about a PCMCIA slot for an
802.11b card.  Now if only SNAP would support WUXGA on notebook screens,
I'd be in hog heaven. ;-)
