I have a PowerBook G3 Series, codenamed "Wallstreet", which doesn't have the
socket for the internal Apple AirPort card, so I got the ORiNOCO, since it
is basically the same card than the Apple's ones. Under OS 9.1, the card is
fully recognize as an AirPort card (different story under OS X, though...).
So, that's how I ended up. I felt it was pretty useless to have a laptop I
could take anywhere in the house without network access. So, I can really
enjoy now what it means to have a laptop...
