What's the old Army saying? "It it's stupid and it works, it ain't stupid."

I built one of these. It seems to boost the signal strength, but even better, it rejects the OTHER 5 AP's in my neighborhood that XP tries to automatically lock on to. Not bad for 20 minutes, a piece of cardboard, and some aluminum foil. There is even a place that'll sell you one.
