Odd. I'm running -current on an Inspiron 5160 that has a Broadcom
BCM4401 and 2GB in it. No problems so far, at least not with just
booting and letting it sit idle. I've been using wireless exclusively
lately so I haven't been exercising the bfe driver, but you seem to
imply that the machine would be DOA...
