Put a wireless card NOT airport in an apple laptop under OS-X and you

Like a Cisco Aironet or an Orinoco card? Cisco has drivers available for download, and IIRC, the Orinoco works with the Airport driver. Or how about a Prism2.x card? http://wirelessdriver.sf.net/


Apple DOES have less hardware to support, but using WLAN cards isn't a good example.
