    Hey all,

    My cousin picked up a PowerBook G4 which unfortunately didn't come with built-in wireless. Is there a WiFi card that I could get for it?

    Thanks

    Maybe a USB wireless one. Why did it not have a wifi card?

    That's what he was saying. I have the laptop at home but haven't looked at it's internals to verify what it has in there. From looking at the laptop, it doesn't even have any visible USB ports <gulp>.
