Expansion slot for Mac mini g4
Has anyone tried or found a cable and adapter that would let you use the mini pci slot in a G4 mini or other PowerPC g4 based AirPort Extreme compatable Mac that would let you add a PCI card to the machine? Is the slot firmware locked to only airport cards? Can it take any a available PCI card?- joshjohnson
