Considering that the Apple airpot is NOT an Atheros card, this is moot.
You're giving good advice...for Windows users...
A lot Intel based chipsets and other manufacturers, such as Broadcom,
use this method too, as it meant they didn't need to keep flashing the
firmware every time the standards are tweaked and lowers overall costs.
What I should have said was "a lot of G cards did not wave onboard
firmware, for example the Atheros chipset cards commonly do this.) But
then again, I was under the impression that Apple used Atheros for some
of the Airport Extreme cards - which Wikipedia at least backs up, though
they seem to be the "integrated" ones used in some Intel models. Hazy
memory.
