Subject: [OS2Wireless] wifi on desktop?

Hello Stan,
I just got two reports of successful wifi PCI installations! I'll try to =
follow suit. But I am also interested in your message. Can you explain wh=
at you call a "G" wireless bridge adaptor? I also like the idea of having=
 a printer available even when the desktop is off, but I'm not sure what =
you mean by the "adaptor for the printer".=20
TIA
mg
