I just bought and installed a pc wireless card mfd by Wireless.com. Bought it ftom OWC for less than $100. It comes with Mac documentation and software. The website says this card " Also, works with G3, 3400, 2400, 1400, 5300 & 190 PowerBooks".I'm considering getting one for a 1400 I have! It was easy and a pleasure to install, all Mac. I have a Linksys wireless router with 4 ports which you can use to hardwire other computers which I installed at the same time. It was also an easy install. We ought to support companies like Wireless.com who concentrate on Mac. BTW, this means I have a Linksys 4 port router (non-wireless) for sale, Model BEFSR41, that I would like to sell now.
