I've got 2 machines with wireless B PRISM chips.. and one with prism54 
that I couldn't make work for whatever reason, even WITH the firmware.. 
but i haven't touched the prism54 one since it turned out not working.

I'll have to check them out again this weekend and make sure.  I've got 
at least one person who'd use Ark without question if the prism card 
works again.  (orinoco silver specifically)
