Melanie sure is tricksy. She was dropping hints like crazy for the new Intel PRO/Wireless 4965AGN WLAN card for her laptop. Here’s our discussion about it:

Me: You know, there’s a faster wireless card for your laptop.

Her: Huh? I’m sorry, I was watching American Idol so I wasn’t paying attention to you rambling on about my computer.

Me: It’s the Intel PRO/Wireless card and it would replace the built-in Dell Wireless card. It’s faster, too! Your existing one is only an 802.11g spec at only 54Mbit when the signal is perfect while the new one is 802.11n and 150Mbit. You clearly need one.

Her: Whatever.

See what I mean? She wanted it SO bad and it was so obvious. I can see right through her facades of “Huh?” and “Whatever.”

And the good husband complied.
