Jesse;
As Nancy says the regular Airport cards are only 802.11b and express is 
802.11g.  There are several PCI card for 802.11g that are good [some 
that don't say they are Mac compatible will work with a third party 
driver {Atheros (sp) based cards}].
	I've got a D-Link A/B/G card for by Ti-book that works great with the 
OrangeWare Wireless driver, I've tested it with B&G networks so far, 
don't have any A networks around to try it on.
