I'm not sure what your relationship is to Ralink but if they are so
"open-source friendly" why are their latest drivers broken and require
an end user like me to modify the source code, compile the source code
myself, and go through all sorts of back flips just get a freaking
wireless card connected to the Internet?

If they were really serious they would a) fix their freaking drivers and
b) assist the Ubuntu team in testing and getting the fix in before they
ship the freaking gold code for Ubuntu 10.04! From where I stand I see
no such effort from Ralink, et al.

As much as Linux people hate Windows, I've never had to compile my own
Windows drivers to connect to the Internet.
