Well, we're going to need point-to-point links to get between the
different areas we want to cover. The links can be whatever we need them
to be to get the job done. I think we'll always want to have 802.11b at 
the user access points. If we start maxing it out we can add an 802.11a
card there. If we start out using the cheaper equipment we can always 
move things around later as our needs change.
