Anyone know what wireless will be good for an oldish laptop!

Hi all,

I was thinking of going wireless with an old Sharp laptop.

I can't give you a full system spec, because my uncle gave it to me as a backup when my desktop crashed!

Here's what i can give you:

Windows 98
Pentium 3 processor

............ and thats about all i know!

It would be a great help if you can give advise!

Thanks alot,
Chris (Croft .L)

Hi Chris,

If it has a PCMCIA slot then this card should work:

If it has a 32-bit CardBus slot then this network card should work for you:

Both are Win98 compatible.
