Yes, and Snow Leopard and Lion. It is accepted by MacOS X as a third party Airport Extreme card. > 2) presuming the answer to #1 is yes, where does it plug into? the > little bi-slot near the RAM (where the Apple combo card would go), or > do I need to be an adapter such as what Kris suggested (Mini PCI-E > adapter card)? Can't answer as I usually run Hacks, not Macks. > 3) re: form factor, are all cards designated "MINI PCI-E" the same > size/shape? THAT card is a standard sized card. Most of the new ones are short. And, the card you identified is a Broadcom 94322, also called a 4322, and is AirDrop compatible (on Lion). The 94322/4322 is also made in a short card. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
