looks like they do have a plug-in for 2007. I used to use one of those printing programs which was a pain. 2010 looks to have it built right in which is long overdue.

as for your wireless experience, obviously I had a different one with wireless when I was trying 2-3 years ago as my card was one of few that were not supported. there were lots of workarounds but none worked reliably. I'm just sharing my story, sorry if it clashes with your worldview or whatever. I tried ubuntu, and for me, it didn't work. believe me, I tried, spent hours on the support forums. But I wasn't going to write the drivers myself.
