WiFi is probably easiest to find as USB, which you probably already have sockets
for, then Cardbus/PCMCIA. PCI WiFi cards were never all that common.
JM2CW, but instead of a PCI WiFi card, you might want to put in a PCI card that
provides a PCMCIA slot. More flexible use that way.
There are also IDE cable to multi-socket PCMCIA, CF and other card adaptors,
some in FDD housings, others just 'loose'.
