Is it possible to connect to multiple wireless networks, if I have multiple wireless cards?

I have two wireless networks which can't be joined, but I use systems on both networks, so I am constantly changing my network I am attached to in order to access a different system.

I was thinking of picking up a pci express card and using that to maintain a connection to another network. Does anyone think this would work?
You shouldn't make fun of nerds... you'll be working for one some day.

I don't see why not. But you'll probably only be able to select the SSID for each in the Network preferences, not in the Airport menu.
