I'm sorry, what are you whinging about? Every one of the posts in
this thread had something to do with Tom's problem with the CompUSA
wireless card.
Tom, try the IOXpert drivers, you can use them on a trial basis to
see if the card works with them.
I installed the drivers, but that didnt seem to do anything.
Alternatively, poke around at the Windows drivers provided on the
disk that came with it. There's an .INF file that's in the install
directories for Windows that will open in a text editor, and may
contain the manufacturer identification.

When opened the net8185.inf file with text edit, it says the provider
is Realtek.
A trip to www.realtek.com.tw indicates they have they have a PCMCIA
wireless card "8185" :
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?lineid=2002111&famid=2004112&series=All&Software=True
It says its for 10.4, but I only have 10.3.9 on my lombard. I
installed anyway but when I try and run the wireless utility it tells
me there is no wireless LAN card installed. It might be you have to
have 10.4 on the machine.
At no point am I getting any lights on the card so it is possible its
a bum card. The fact that Realtek has a mac driver is encouraging
though.
