That's actually pretty annoying.  I can't disable the onboard wireless
of my T42, so I have no choice but to use it on wireless (or
edit /etc/rc.conf, reboot, and remember to re-enable it later) when I'm
at home --- not so nice when I want to do large data transfers between
it and my desktop box.  :(
