	I've got one. It works. The one I have is made by ASUS. With Mint 10 
(two years ago) it did well on "G" but not on "N". I gather there /may/ 
be some driver issues with individual dongles. I haven't tested it on 
the current Mint yet. As I recall Don Stevens may have one or two of a 
less problematic brand left.
