The two Intel cards are not supported at the moment but I have  seen 
that there are some work in progress on them (OpenBSD have a driver for 
them). The Dell branded card has a Broadcom chipset it seems, 
(bcm94312hmg) and thats not supported either AFAIK.

One option is to order it without WiFi and put in some Atheros card 
yourself (which I did).
