Unless you are using OSX last time I checked (admittedly a few months ago) they still didn't have X drivers, but the external Ethernet to WiFi boxes it doesn't matter.
But I guess the point is it is doable, best thing to do is go to your local computer store with a pad and paper and write down all the WiFi stuff they have and then do some research on the net ... Tell them you want 802.11****b**** there is also 802.11a which isn't compatible with airport, and there is 802.11g AKA Airport extreme, which is a lot faster, but will cost more, and I don't think any of your older Macs could take advantage of it. Since you said that you have a PC that will be on the net, you can get just about any WiFi router, the software "compatibility" is for setting up the router, not for getting on the LAN. > There are at least two wireless card setups that work (as long asyou don't > have a Sonnet Tempo Trio installed) that I know of.
