Ah, but things could always run better.  For instance in the last kernel
upgrade  the b43 wifi drivers finally work well with my laptop so I no
longer have to use ndiswrapper. This is a great plus in my book, So even if
things are working, I assume that something will work even better in the
next kernel.
