I think everyone just uses re-branded chips from other manufact.

Its a Dell, if you don't like it, ship the sucker back! Afaik, they are fairly liberal on returns. I've never acually tryed to send anything back, but everytime I've asked about it I was told I had 30 days. Ask and see

I wish I had that luxury. I use linux, and support is.. umm.. ya know. I have to buy the right card or it flat out doesn't work.

Thats partly why I bought my lappy from Dell. Alot of written documention on hacking linux on it, and 30 days to decide if I like it (or to see if it even works in my case)

for reference dell can go stick their heads in a bucket, an aphorism that i have substituted for a more colorful epithet i was using earlier. im going to post my experience in the pub.

i'm sending the card back.
