My son is finally learning to read, and it is time to put a computer in his room. Unfortunately, we live in a hundred-year old house, and the idea of threading several feet of cat5 through bedroom and hallway is not appealing. I am putting Edubuntu on it for him.
If the house is old, it may very well be made in a way that interferes with wireless signals. I'd suggest grabbing a cheap USB dongle from WalMart. If it doesn't work well for any reason, you can just return it :)
