I would guess that just about ALL Ethernet to 802.11 devices would be Mac compatible, they don't require drivers or a particular OS - your computer just thinks it's a normal old Ethernet cable. Most say "Compatible with PC, Mac, XBox, PS2, Printers, Set top boxes, ANYTHING WITH AN ETHERNET PORT!" Any setup that they require is usually done with a normal web browser. > What I need is either one that IS mac compatible or some kind of > AirPort/PCI adapter. For $100 you can get a PCI 802.11g card with Mac drivers. Needs at least OS 10.2.4 though: http://macwireless.com/html/products/11g/11gPCI.html -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
