i got it from newegg but i guess they dont have it anymore, the site above doesnt talk about os x support but you can check here http://support.asus.com/downlo...L-167g&SLanguage=en-us

they have the osx drivers

I use RALINK USB cards because they work with OS X, Windows, and Linux.

What kind of G4 Mac is this? Airport Extreme cards are pretty cheap now.

50 bucks is a bit much to put into an old G4. The guy I'm setting this computer for has put 80 bucks for a new hard drive and a DVD burner. I know it can take the Airport Extreme card for sure as I opened the system.

Thanks for the suggestions guys!

I think anything with a Broadcom chipset will work out of the box in OS X. I use a Buffalo WLI2-PCI-G54S in an old G4 with no issues. It's recognized as an Airport Extreme in the OS.
