I agree, you are paranoid. I have two PCs (both wireless) and two
Macs (1 wireless and 1 Ethernet) served by a wireless router with 64
bit encryption, and don't have any problems, nor do I expect any. I'm
using an Airport Extreme, which makes it simple for all to share a
USB printer located near the base station. Wireless would permit your
wife to be just about anywhere in your house or outside with the
laptop, without dragging a cable.

So just how hard is it for a determined hacker to get past those
barriers? Anyone know for sure (no speculation, pleeze)?
