How can I install wireless internet on my older laptop?

I have an older dell laptop with an Windows XP upgrade but it doesn't have wireless built in. How do I get wireless on it? What do I need to get or buy or do? Thanx

If your laptop has a CARDBUS or PCMCIA port (it probably does), the easiest way to upgrade it would be to purchase a wireless LAN adapter which plugs into it.

You can buy a wireless PC card. Just make sure your laptop is new enough to support a PC card.
