How can I tell if my computer has wireless technology?

However, being connected with a wire usually gives you a faster connection. Wireless is just good for those of us too lazy to run the cables through the house.

My home Wi-Fi is as fast as my wired desktop and both are damn fast.

Speed depends on whether it's an A, B, or G wireless card and router.

Look up Wi-Fi on Wikipedia to learn more.

Really?? I thought transmitted radio waves were faster than atoms bumping into each other along a wire...
