Wireless Card question

Question

Hey all, just got a quick question for you. I'm currently looking at buying an Inspiron 600m for my college computing, and I found out that only half of the campus is wireless. So, my question is: do the wireless networking card for the laptops, specifically the 600m and Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200 Internal Wireless (802.11 b/g, 54Mbps) come with a regular wired Ethernet port so I can hook it up in my dorm room? Thanks a lot.

I just bought an Intel Wireless Pro 2200 b/g , not from Dell, but on Ebay will there any problem with the Dell bios recognizing the card?? I have heard IBM
Thinkpads won't take the generic card forcing you to buy the card from IBM.
