Two thoughts. First, I was able to get a dongle for my mom's 3Com PC Card
network adapter for (I think) $15. It was cheaper than getting another
card, so worth looking into. Also, you might consider removing the hard
drive and installing it on some other machine. Might work if you want that
laptop badly enough.
Cheers,
