Well, then, Paula, may I request you write a Wireless Installation 
Wizard, of as general application as possible, ie providing guidance for 
everybody with a converted machine and no wireless, with all the 
commands listed verbatim, for those of us confused by the scrappy and 
conflicting instructions on how to do it that are scattered across 
Ubuntu Forums? For my part, I have downloaded a copy of "The Linux 
Command  Line" by William E Shotts, which will gradually teach me how to 
do all this for myself. I stress: gradually.
