Having no experience with the Apple machines, I would say a definite
maybe . . .

The criteria are that the slot is fully compliant with the MiniPCI
specs, and that you have suitable drivers for it.

If you like, you can try my card in it and see - just have your Atheros
drivers compiled and ready to go.

The downside is, only the revision A cards are MiniPCI - the current
generation of the Dlink cards actually have the guts directly on the
PCB.
