I agree except you can usually find a Netgear and/or Linksys on sale
locally at CompUSA, Office Depot, BestBuy or Circuit City on sale
for $30 to $40 resp. usually after rebate. Both are good routers
for the very inexpensive price. If you go wireless - just get the
regular G router for that $30-40 - not many sales on wired routers
these days. Just pick up your Sunday paper on Saturday at your
local supermarket and see who has the best sale on.
