* The specifications for 802.11n draft 2.0 are draft specifications and are
not final. If the final specifications differ from the draft specifications, it may
affect the ability of the notebook to communicate with other 802.11n WLAN
devices. In countries where n draft 2.0 is not allowed, this capability is not
enabled.
