Even without the antenna, the Mac itself should still be able to "see" the
card plugged into the slot, even if it's got no range. The Mac literally
doesn't think anything is plugged into the slot.

I've tried TWO different cards, both of which the seller says have been
tested. I've seated them, re-seated them, rebooted, pressed the CUDA
button, repaired disk permissions, everything I can think of.

Sorry, I meant to say I'm running Leopard, obviously. The question remains,
though.

Of course, if you plan on doing a processor upgrade, then there's
