I'd actually have to disagree. I *love* NM on my Asus (netbook).
Congratulations.
For me,
- NM doesn't work on any machine w/ WLAN
- NM is just bloated ballast on machines w/o WLAN

Yes, it works "sufficiently" on my desktops, but ... at which price?
... Instability caused by silly "dark magic",
... no cli
... no network profiles
... bloat
(For one, it handles Verizon CDMA modems out of the
box, much better even that on Windoze, which is why I'd much rather use
NM when dealing with one of those.) However, it's not yet up-to-snuff
(and possibly inferior) for servers or other "complicated" network
setups, and it's maybe at "break even" for static setups.
My network isn't compliated (static IPs, static topologic, yp based
autofs, DHCP).
It's just that NM can't handle it properly.
