If the laptops been updated to XP SP3 it will have WPA2 support,Some routers allow a wireless setting of WPA and WPA2 on the same passcode just a matter of selecting a different button on the menu I believe

That's true, but the wireless adapter has to support it.

Most have been updated hopefully, I never bother with what's on the Acer site, having checked in the Acer forums I just download the latest for my Intel 5100 from Intels site, may be worth seeing if there is a newer one for that card with the card manufacturer compared with Sony's offering, manufacturers are slow or do not really bother updating some drivers at all, hopefully it will all work though  :)
Damned, if you do damned if you don't

I know people that are using old D-Link adapters, for example, that, even with the latest driver, doesn't support WPA, let alone WPA2!
