So far as I know, yes.
I am giving my son my Powerbook (medical emergency), and buying an iBook
for myself like TODAY. Of course it has no pc-card slot, and they ALL
come w/ Airport Extremes these days.
Well, your son would be fine for using KisMac, since he could
always choose to use a third-party card.
This snippet of the last thread jarred my memory, and I wonder....what
options i'll have. I did see a few DOZEN plain ol' Airport cards
for sale down at Mac Shack in Boulder, when last I visited my son at
college about 7 months ago...they found a source somehow...
Using an iBook, I think your only option will be to use a USB
WiFi device, but I'm not sure which ones are supported for use with
KisMac in passive mode.
