    hi this is going to be my first notebook and i am looking at this one http://www.thesource.ca/estore/product.aspx?language=en-CA&product=2510304&category=Notebooks_English&catalog=Online&tab=2#more Anyway, im ready to buy it but i noticed that under the networking part it says this.

    Internet/Networking
    Ethernet: Yes
    Wireless: No
    Dial-up Modem: Yes

    it says no for wireless. So does this mean this notebook cannot connect to a wireless network? and i have to plug it in to my router when i need to use the internet? thanks

    I don't think so, it does says that it has an USB port and an ExpressCard slot, so you could insert a wireless adapter in either of those ports..

    To use the Expresscard slot or the USB port is not an hassle at all, very simple.
