Hi Rich, Well done!
I was reminded that *I* may need to do that, as I travel with an old Toshiba under W98 (boss is tight-fisted!). I was working in Stockholm's Bromma airport at the end of the week, & there was a vague possibility that I would have to d/l a program from the office. No way could I get a dial-up link, or a direct connect to the airport server, but the whole airport is a hot zone! "Just need a PC Wifi card" they say! Tried one in Munich last month, but it was a type II card, which won't fit my type I slot! Maybe I steal my boss's PC next time! I'm sure *he* has Wifi!
