Verizon DSL with Linksys Wireless Router

[Thomas D. Kearns]

I have Verizon DSL which works well.  I want to network my iBook with 
my iMac and probably a cheap windoze laptop in the future.  Verizon 
offers a Linksys system but specifically disclaims that it works with 
Macs - see the end of the description below.  The primary reason I 
would buy it is to get the free support.  Does anybody have any 
experience with this issue with Verizon?  What if I get the cheap 
windoze laptop and call Verizon to buy the Linksys, then add the Macs?  
Any disadvantages of going this way?
