Any recommendations on a particular model of PC card to pop into this model? Inexpensive is a plus, as is support under OS 9 as the machine is a company machine for which OS X has not been licensed.

The Bronze models will not accept AirPort cards unfortunately, so I must find another solution.

Thanks in advance (this is not my personal machine, but a family member's, so reliability or minimal need for tweaking is also a plus).
MacBook White 2.0 GHz, SuperDrive, 2 GB RAM, 120GB

I have a Netgear card and a registered copy of Aerocard 2.0 for OS 9. They were pulled from one of my 3400's when I sold them. The card and software worked flawlessly. If you want them they're yours for $50 shipped.

Awesome X-Ray...and just on a side note, X-Ray's a great guy to deal with. I purchased Unreal & UT for OS 9 from him and had them within a few days.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. One thing I forgot to mention, the software is easy to use.
