LMAO, I don't see any wireless cards any where on that board.

Look at this boards rear area, see that little 1/2 inch tall PCB with the gold connectors? thats the wireless card soldered in place.

the module is connected via some cables next to the pci slot, and it uses a pci bracket. so its not included, you'll have to buy it seperately.
