Macbook pro is having too many issues, I plan to sell it and by a clevo whitebook, specifically this model: http://www.clevo.com.tw/clevo_prodetail.asp?id=3D941&lang=3Den Is that intel model wifi card supported? If yes what modes if no or support incoming that's fine as well. I am just trying to find a machine that works well with FreeBSD.
