best bet is to ask the vendors, "fully compliant" really doesn't mean
anything.  if it is truly fully compliant it should work under any os on
any kind of machine (even one that may not exist yet), but vendors are
notoriously generous with claims about their products in general and in
particular about claims to comply with "standards".  you also have to
make sure the pcmcia card is compatible with macs.
