as I have a couple of g5's to deal with I really don't see spending $100 per card via apple. I see there is an apple compatable 802.11g by Buffalo technology for $30 per. Anyone tried that? How about linksys, d-link or netgear 802.11g cards? they all average one third of apple's adapter.

The Buffalo card will work just fine. I have one in my G4 and I can confirm that the card will also fit in a G5 (and I am aware of the differences in PCI slots from the G4 to the G5) and work with the native Airport drivers.
