Windows Vista Wireless Networking
Windows vista does have some improvements to wireless networking, For example it was simple in the days of eithernet (a crossover cable and your done connecting 2 PCs), in a wireless network, network adapters do not broadcast an SSID (Service Set Identifier), Still this should not stop you from using what is called a hidden wireless network, it is probably worth mentioning that this kind of networking was available in windows XP, it is just dealt with in a different way in VISTA, in other words, vista now treats broadcasting and non broadcasting networks alike (not technically, but when you set up a wireless connection for example)
