So I bought an Aria Extreme PC card for my TiBook 400. I went to put it in and something was catching on it (never had a use for the PC slot). On closer inspection it was the Airport antenna wire. Subsequently that wire got slightly cut and exposed. After a few trials I got the bottom off and sealed the cut with 105° C electrical tape, and also taped the wire to the card frame to keep it out of the PC slot. Does anyone think that this is a bad idea in the long run? I don't think it's a problem, but I'm a little worried about heat (ie I don't want my PB ruined, it needs to last through another year of school).

Thanks,
Endeavor
