Oh wow, interesting find. I was thinking the other day about airport cards, and wondered how I could go about installing one on my iMac. Its tray loading though.

actually it is not that difficult to see if the G3 iMac can take the airport adaptor - if u look in thru the top access panel there is an aerial lead floating around that plugs into the airport card/adaptor. Normally it is pushed onto a white plastic holder but can get pushed free with adding removing RAM

I have made a sticky of a guide from Apples website about installing airport cards.
FYI tray-loading iMacs can not use airport cards.

and some slot loading ones as well - the plastic guides and aerial connector is the only reliable way to tell.
