I guess I wouldn't know that til I took it apart.  MiniPCI Wireless is
listed as an option for my laptop, but perhaps they only put an antenna in
if they build one with the wireless.  Looking at the disassembly
documentation, the miniPCI slot is not accessable from the bottom of the
case.  I'd have to remove the keyboard as it is on the top of the
motherboard.  Not sure if its worth all that potential devistation. :-P
