*Don't* buy a D-Link 580. I've tried these in several different machines
and they have a tendancy to die under high loads or sometimes even just
with low loads. I gave up and went for the Intel cards, which are
expensive but work well. The D-Link 570 is a different chipset than the
580, so it might well be ok - I've never used one.
