Nope, I think you got it right. I don't think that MoreSCF has been kept
up to date (I could be wrong). I don't think it recognizes
AirportExtreme. It probably doesn't recognize FireWire networking either.
I seem to recall Quinn saying that this interface is not maintainable
and that Apple should be coming out with a more stable and maintainable
interface.
If you want to recognize Airport Extreme, poke around just as Quinn has
and add the ability. Unless someone on the list wants to share how they do it.
