How do I find out if I have a wireless card in my iMac?

I have an iMac running OS 10-point-2-point-8. If I do, how do I access it?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say if you don't know you have a card you probably don't.

But if you need to know, for whatever reason, open up /Applications/Utilities/System Profiler and look for "AirPort Card" on the left. Or maybe PCI/AGP, if it's an off-brand...

Of course!
/me smacks forehead.
Why didn't I realize that? Anyway, it says that I have a built in AGP, card type NVDA,GeForceMX. That doesn't have to do with wireless internet does it? It seems as though I'm going to have to buy an Airport card but those cost $100. Any ideas?

Naw, AGP would be your graphics card.

I don't have any bright idea, personally... I mean, I have an AirPort card :roll:
