You just showed your total disregard for any sanity by calling broadcom 
"sane".

Quite frankly, Broadcom is probably the single worst chip manufacturer in 
terms of both bugginess of the silicon itself and in terms of lack of 
support.

.. and you also showed that you didn't even read my email and the options 
I outlined. The fact is, the Intel wireless chipset only works with x86 
CPU's. There is absolutely zero "price" on crap CPU's, because they are 
simply not relevant to this driver.
