Hi I know I have compiled a list of Mac compatible PCMCIA cards, but a small point has eluded me.
http://www.simonroyal.co.uk/html/maccards.html The original Airport card is only 802.11b. Some of the cards that fit in the PCMCIA slots of PowerBooks and are recognised as Airport cards by the machine are 802.11g. So does these technically give you Airport Extreme in a Mac that originally had Airport. OSX works with both Airport and Airport Extreme. I ask this as a friend of mine has a PowerBook and a Buffalo AirStation WLI-CB-G54A which when popped in the side of his Mac shows up as Airport. This is technically a G card, but will the Mac pick it up as a G card or only work as a B card. Sorry for the rather messy message but I know what I am trying to ask but my brain isn't moving it to my fingers.
