[iBook] Re: Airport csrd slot

[BG]

Well, After some numerous tries and discussions with the support people 
at Orange Ware, it turns out that the Airport slot will not support any 
32 bit Cardbus cards. So not G wireless will work.  Oh well, i am going 
to dig out my Powerbook 2400c which I Cardbus modified and try that, 
there is an OS 9 version of the Orange Ware software.
