The Wii, as far as I know, does not support 802.1x. We have our Wii users b=
uy the wired ethernet adapter for it.

Subject: Re: [RESNET-L] Get ready for a whole lot more Xboxes on ResNet in =
the fall... ;)

I saw an ad from Dell on this.   I guess MS$  really wants to stop the tren=
d of consumer Apple purchases.    We will see if what Apple has for their b=
ack to school deal this summer to compete.   I hope they will give away an =
iPad.  ;)

BTW,   since my residence halls  will be all wireless in the fall.  I am tr=
ying to find out if any of you support wii on  a 802.1x wireless network?  =
 If you do, how do you get it to work?   If not, how do you support it on t=
he network then?

Thanks in advance,
Wendy

free-xbox-360/

Microsoft announced yesterday via the Windows Blog<http://windowsteamblog.c=
om/windows/b/windowsexperience/archive/2011/05/12/students-we-ve-got-you-co=
vered.aspx> that it would be offering eligible high school and college stud=
ents a free 4GB Xbox 360 with the purchase of a $699+ Windows 7 PC from par=
ticipating retailers.


The offer starts on May 22, and Microsoft claims that "you can buy any kind=
 of PC, although we recommend a few specifically for students." The company=
 also offers a "PC Scout<http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pc-scout/student.=
aspx?cbid=3Dstudent#tour>" app on Windows.com as a means of helping custome=
rs find an appropriate machine for them.


Customers with .edu email addresses can purchase online, while other eligib=
le students simply need to walk into a participating retailer with their st=
udent ID and pick the machine they want -- so long as it's over $699, they'=
ll be able to claim their free Xbox 360.
