LF:Apple airport wifi card for imac g3/g4
I don't know how much you would want but post me a fair offer and I'll see what happens.
If I knew how to do this why would I be asking you?
The G3 and G4 iMacs take different kinds of AirPort cards.
The G4 takes an "AirPort Extreme" 802.11g 54g card that you can get for about $30.
The G3 takes a standard AirPort 802.11b card, which actually costs much more ($50-75, usually) and also requires a $15 adapter to work in the G3 iMac.
The reason the slower card costs more is most G4/AirPort Extreme-g capable computers came with included AirPort cards, while a lot of the standard AirPort capable machines didn't. Apple has now discontinued their B-cards, but occasionally sells the G-cards in their refurb store online.
Hope that helps.
