Yes, you could get an ORiNOCO Silver or Gold card, which are basically the same than Apple own AirPort card. On OS 9, you only have to install the AirPort software and your card will be recognized as a genuine AirPort card. On OS X, you need to use 3rd party drivers. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe, trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
