Anyone have a Netgear MA311 PCI card?
I am looking for a Netgear MA311 PCI 802.11b WiFi card to build a OpenBSD powered WAP.
If anyone in the bay area has one of these, even if your not a tech person, please, please, please, sell the card to me.
It is almost literally impossible to find these, there are 2 vendors on ebay that have stock piles of them but they are not returning my emails.
If you have one of these cards and are not a tech person, I will come to your house and swap the card for you with one that will fit with your current wireless setup.
Why am I asking here?
1) Because I know there are other geeky people here like me.
2) OpenBSD does not have support for any newer 802.11g or the later 802.11b PCI cards(e.g. Linksys WMP11 v2.7, v3, & v4 DONT work).
3) I am a desparate geek in need to play with WiFi stuff.

Wow... what is the chances of this happening?
I've had one sitting here on my desk for the past year UNOPENED and still shrunk wrapped. PM me if you're interested.

:waiting anxiously for topcover's reply:
Computers are still my favorite obsession, now I just need to build up a dashPC. I have a IBM thinkpad 600e to start with.
