Yay...free

	I apologize if this is a FAQ, but is there any chance that Airport can
work on IA32?  Or is this just on LinuxPPC on Powerbooks and iBooks?
The airport card is specifically for the newer powerbooks and the ibooks, so
you can't use that card.  You can however use a Airport base with a wavelan
card which is what the airport card is based on.

or for that matter any 802.11 compatible card (I have seen an aironet
11MBit card talking to an airport plugged into a vaio next to an ibook
also using the airport so it all works nicely), see
http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/ for a definitive
sort of reference on wireless hardware such as this on linux or at least
links.
