I've been using $9.99 802.11b/g USB 2.0 wireless for nearly a decade. At least three manufacturers now supply 10.3 and 10.4/10.5 drivers for their USB dongles, and all three support ... in some cases ... stronger protection than do the Apple cards. I DO have a couple of Belkin PCI cards, which are Broadcom-based, and are seen as Apple "Airport Extreme" cards, but I have found the USB 2.0 dongles to be more cost-effective, more user-friendly, and more reliable. I am now using Hacks in place of "Macks" for most of my production work. Most Hacks have 10 or 12 USB 2.0 ports, but most have only 2 PCI slots (although one, the Gigabyte S3G, has 5 PCI slots). http://groups.google.com/group/hq-a <+> A home for the Hackintosh community.
