            The Lucent card is the same card that Apple ships as the
    Airport card (the one for non-antenna machines), and is what I am
    using right now to read & reply to this message in my Wallstreet ;).

            The same card works just fine in PC's, as I have one in my
    Sony Vaio. In fact, the Lucent card comes with both PC and Mac
    drivers - but on the Mac, you REALLY want to use Apple's Airport
    software!
