[TriLUG] Wireless: PCMCIA or USB

[Joseph S. Tate]

USB, then you can use it later. PCMCIA is obsolete, so will have no future
life on a later laptop, a usb wireless nic could be useful on a desktop, or
later laptop. Then either make do with only one free port, carry a hub, or
upgrade your laptop.

Cheap, fast, or good. Pick any two!
