I have a USB I'm using on a laptop at the moment.
I'd recommend not using USB for WIFI cards though. It's cheaping out and
whilst USB supports the speeds there's alot of overhead.
WIFI is not the most reliable for large data transfers at the best of times
and USB adds to the strain.
By all means grab a USB and test it out. Depending on what your network
will be doing it might be fine.

SVP Communications do a range of networking components. I have their PCMCIA
card in a Toshiba laptop and it gives better reception than both my Dlink
and Actiontec cards. Just put it in a 2K machine as an experiment and it is
easy to use with Hal are the dlink and Actiontec models.
Prior to using the PCMCIA card in the portable and before I had a router I
shared all access via USB card in Ad Hoc mode and never encountered
problems.
