Which is extremely bad for the apple II...

I have a wireless card here, apparently the only one that will work
with a 266mhz laptop.  With the wireless card installed, the computer
CRAWLS.  With the wired ethernet, the computer is decent with win98.
I guess the CPU is probably manually hitting the antenna with signal,
just like our Apple II's did with the speaker :-)  Varying the timing
loops prolly gets you the 2.6ghz...  :-)...  Hey, that'd mean the card
has a X10 multiplier.  So 266mhz gets to 2ghz..  I wonder??
