I'd not recommend buying a card that requires ndiswrapper:
It will not work on anything nut IA32 (except maybe if you're lucky AMD-64).
It does not encourage vendors to help write proper Linux drivers; the best
encouragement is buying kit from those who help such as Intersil and Atheros.
If you want to run Windows software, run Windoss:-)
I _would_ use ndiswrapper if I had a card that requires it and I couldn't pass
it on to a Windows user.
