I'm looking to get a dell, either XPS 1330 or inspiron 13, from dell outlet (whenever a new coupon comes out). However, there aern't many that come with the intel 4965 wireless card I want. If I get one with the dell wireless card, all i have to do to replace it is take the dell one out, install the 4965, then download the driver right? Anyone had any probs with this install? Sorry for such a newbie question, I'm still a young padowan. Thanks to all who reply. ERIKgENERIK.

assuming that the 4965 is a half-size mini-pcie, then it should just drop in, yeah.

The i4965 is not an ideal choice as it doesn't do 11n with 2.4Ghz only with 5Ghz.
You'd be better suited to a Dell WLAN card 1505 or 1510 as these do 11n in both 2.4 and 5Ghz.
Or better yet an OEM card that does everythng
Just my 2c worth -
FYI: The Intel 5300AGN in my E6500 does N on both bands, if you must have Intel
