I have Suse 10 running on several machines, including a laptop, all with different wifi hardware and it has all worked out of the box. The different types of wifi hardware: Intel 2200 wifi (detected and setup during install), Netgear USB wifi (detected and setup correctly during install), and netgear MA401 pcmcia wifi card (detected and setup correctly during install). So I would say you have many different options to choose from. I have been tinkering with Suse since 8 and 9 was the version that finally made it my primary OS. It has just gotten better with each release. I have definately noticed a strong push for hardware support since 9. I hope you give it a try.
BBSes are not dead. Actually there has been a resurge as of late with telnet BBSes resurfacing. These are actual Commodore/Apple/Atari systems running the BBS software us Old Timers know and love (Ivory, CNet, CGBBS, etc)via telnet instead of dialup. You can get more information including petscii client software to use for Commodore color BBSes at http://www.telbbs.com/
Enjoy
