Does it have Intel cpus? Then you can use it.
Will it work with the supplied wifi card? I haven't the foggiest clue mostly
as I don't know what card it has.
To get a sensible answer on a question like that, you MUST supply the entire
spec of all the hardware you intend to buy. Only then can people offer an
opinion on how good or otherwise the drivers are.
The way you composed that mail, everyone else will need to do the research on
the hardware for you. Most of us would rather you did that bit yourself.
