Default Compatible wireless cards? - 10-26-2010, 04:26 PM

Hi, I'm Cameron and I'm new to the forum.

I'm about to buy a Dell Mini 1012 to dual boot Windows 7 and OS X.
(Also, as of today, the Dell Mini 1018 seems to have disappeared from the website. Anybody know why?)

My question is which wireless card would be more compatible with OS X?
The two options currently listed are:
-Wireless 802.11n (HB95) Mini Card
-
Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250

Thanks a lot everyone.

You'll not be happy with osx on a 1012. No video acceleration is really limiting.

I'm ok with that. My biggest concern is wifi access.
