The Apple Core: MacBook's Wireless Dropouts Remain Unsolved
In spite of the recent slew of AirPort updates, discussions boards are full of complaints regarding Apple's long-standing problems with MacBook and MacBook Pro laptops holding their WiFi connections.
To this extent, Apple is taking a quality assurance beating on the issue and has raised eyebrows as to what the underlying problems, which may have emerged with the release of Mac OS X 10.5.2, may be.
Over on The Apple Core, the mighty David Morgenstern has taken complaints, put them in a reasonable order.
Take a gander and if you've been having trouble holding a wireless connection on an Apple laptop running Mac OS X 10.5 ("Leopard"), let us know over in the comments or forums.

This is why I stopped using my MBP for anything other then a desktop. Monitor, mouse, keyboard, Ethernet, USB hub, printer, scanner and just let it sit there. I use my tablet PC for on the go use. Hell of a lot more reliable. I haven't had any problems since I started doing this last month.
