I didn't get a powerpc laptop but I did get a laptop. I have an Airport card that I can put in and run the second antenna line to. If I get the chance, I'll bring my iMac to where I live and reinstall it with CURRENT. I was using Qemu for testing but the systems didn't on it seem tom have any APM set up on them. I'm wondering if the virtualization carries of to the VM at times. I.e. It emulates an i386 on i386 instead of dynamic translation. So, if you need me to test Airport on i386, I can do that.
