    I have a G4 Desktop and would like to add wireless capability. How much should I expect to spend to make this happen?

    Thanks.

    Do you mean, adding wifi capability or turning it to a laptop?

    That would make a pretty heavy laptop.

    I know that when I went to DSL, ATT provided me some external USB adapters that would make a computer wirelessly compatible (yes, it's been a while lol). Anyway, they worked great. I'm sure there are still USB wireless adapters available...
