[TriLUG] USB ethernet adapters

[Chris Bullock]

I decided to go with the Compaq ipaq, only due to cost, bought it from 
Best Buy for $9.99, If they had more I would have bought them all. 
 Haven't installed it onto my Linux partition but I have read articles 
that state that the Pegasus drivers will work.
