Fry's has an Airlink101 pci card on sale for $17.99.  From the specs
at www.airlink101com it appears to be an Atheros chipset, which should
work fine with madwifi drivers.  I  have not tried this particular
card, but I did get a couple of the Airlink pcmcia cards for my
laptops a couple of months ago, which also use Atheros, and they have
worked great.
