Hey! Goto
http://www.egghead.com/atcost/solutions/dlink/dlink_pccards.htm
and take a look at the d-link cards! I bought one of
the D-Link DE-660 PCMCIA cards and it works flawlessly
in my upgraded 2000 Newt. All I needed was that
Generic "ATLAN" extension (of course, I needed all the
other Ethernet stuff as well) but I paid $25us for my
D-Link 660 and it works better than anything else I
tried to use. The only down side is the clunky
dongle...but you won't see me complaining!
