It's keyed as a CardBus (32 bit) slot, so will accept any PC card you 
stick in. I do NOT know however if it's really a 32 bit slot or just 
mascarades as one, Apple's provided zero public documentation. The 'Book 
however will recognize puka AP cards, _and_ PC cards based on the same 
chip set (eg: Lucent WaveLAN - 16 bit cards.)

Why do you ask BTW?
