    Yes that card is pretty good, some wifi (certain campuses) block WoW for sure. FFXI normally isn't blocked

    Thanks. The wifi is from my cable company so I doubt they block a game. At least I hope not. I wonder if i should wait til windows 7 comes out to buy.

    You'll be waiting a long time then. No, don't wait.
