I have a new epia m and am trying to decide what to use the pci slot for. I guess I have the follow 2 things in mind but don't know what else to consider.

Wireless Lan card
Sound card (is the onboard that bad?)

Any suggestions?

I recommend a air card. Air has many advantages.

1) It's cheap. It isn't going to break the bank.
2) It's uses very little power. This means you don't need such a big power supply.
3) It means you don't have to think too hard. On most motherboards, all pci slots generally come pre-populated with air. So you don't have to take your pc apart, and you don't have to think what to put in there.

(Sorry, couldn't resist).
