Re: Dell laptop with wireless (sometimes)

["Steve McKay" <steve.mckay@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

David -

To the right of the switch (if you're looking directly at the switch), there 
is what appears to be a small, round LED.  When you slide the switch "on", 
does that light come on?  Mine does not (actually, I'm not even sure that 
it's a LED because I've never seen it 'on' - it just appears to be an LED to 
me).

Thanks,

Steve
