[ale] USB Wireless

[Mark Ulmer]

ALE and Chuck,
Thanks for the thread regarding usb wifi.  I needed to pick up a couple
nano size wifi that would work well on Linux. Today at the ALE NW
meeting JDP mentioned this email thread.  I went by MicroCenter and for
2 of the Tenda nano. Sticker was $8.99 and at checkout they were $5.99.
Got home and already using both in my ubuntu boxes (drivers are included
in Linux 4.2 and later).  Very nice that's what I needed.
