Hi... I'm not too sure if anyone know's this or not, but I have an old airport card in my current machine (not airport extreme) and I'm wondering if it'll work in the new powermacs?
Got a tip for us?

Nope, physically incompatible connections. However you should be able to sell it readily for $80 + because they are not available new any more.alien said:

Nope, sorry. But I'd happily trade you for the proper one.
(I have an old iMac that needs an AirPort card, and the original ones are hard to come by. On the other hand, I can find AirPort Extreme cards cheaply around here.)Thanks for the info
Thanks for your help guys. That sucks that I can't use my old card. I guess I'll trade it in with my computer when I pick up my new one. Hopefully they'll give me a few extra bucks for it.

If you trade it in with the computer, they'll give you about 1/10th what you can get on eBay for it. Rip it out an sell it to one of us, if you don't want to profit.
