Hi,
Just about any USB 2.0 card should work in either Linux or Windows. I have 
yet to see one that doesn't. That has to do with the fact that there is 
really only one chip used to provide that interface at the moment, 
regardless of who makes the card. Not to say that it makes no difference 
which brand you buy as far as quality is concerned, but they all use the 
same controler chip. The standard USB 2.0 driver in Linux will work, and 
Windows XP will also normally support any card you buy out of the box.
