The Valet of the Shadow

Retire my old warhorse laptop just because it doesn’t have integrated wireless? What kind of a monster do you think I am?

One man’s obsolete, useless laptop is another man’s trusted companion. Just call me “another man”. My stalwart electronic comrade has had my back, and my lap, through four jobs, three continents, and two Tonight Show hosts. Now I’m supposed to cast it aside for a newer, flashier model, like some philandering Congressman?

No way. Not when I can just plug in the Cisco Valet AM10 USB Network Adapter and access 802.11b/g/n wireless networks at home, the office, or anywhere else there’s a Wi-Fi hotspot. My old laptop and I can keep on riding into that sunset together. And thanks to its WEP, WPA, and WPA2 encryption, I know that nobody will come between me and Ol’ Lappy.

The Cisco Valet AM10’s wireless access especially comes in handy now that I’ve left my wife. If you’ll excuse me, I need to find a Starbucks or something and email my divorce lawyer.
