No, the Dork card is the successor to the ORiNOCO Classic series (8410-WD).

8410 series = Known as the ORiNOCO Classic Gold/Silver card series, uses Hermes chipset, has ext. antenna connector, only fully supported card for NetStumbler. 802.11b only.

8420 series = Known as the ORiNOCO Gold/Silver card series, uses Hermes II chipset, has ext. antenna connector, P.O.S. AKA Dork Card. 802.11b only.

8470 series = Known as the ORiNOCO Gold/Silver b/g cards series, uses Atheros chipset, has ext. antenna connector. 802.11b/g.

8480 series = Known as the ORiNOCO Gold/Silver a/b/g card series, uses Atheros chipset, no external antenna connector. 802.11a/b/g.
