So why aren't ALL the forums visible to non-registered users? I wonder if that would cut down the confusion? ...

I feel a bit taken too. I bought the Proxim card because I was under the mistaken impression that it was the same as the Orinoco card. NOWHERE in ANY Netstumbler documentation including this forum (before I registered) was there anything that I could find that said that the Proxim card would not work. Since I was under the false impression that the Proxim was the same as the Orinoco, I naturally assumed that since Proxim was not mentioned in the FAQs it would work. I DID try to do my homework. Did I miss something?

How about adding Proxim to the list of cards that DO NOT work? Wouldn't that end the confusion?

Finally, what do you feel taken by? NS is free and it is beta. Caveat emptor.

Please understand this: Although the author of NetStumbler and MiniStumbler occationally graces us with his presense on this site, we on the forums have no control over the content of the README.HTML.
We also do not have any control over Proxim buying out ORiNOCO and changing the cards. That happened between the last time a version of NS was issued, and now. When the members here realized that the new cards not not work, we posted the above noted thread to help out newbies. It was posted in an area accessable to guests. We can't help it if newbies do not take the time to search and read.
