Story: New Microsoft Wi-Fi gear runs on latest standard

Bought an MN-700/MN-720 kit in the USA and took it home to the UK.
The MN-720 software will not load on a Sony Vaio 707 or a Dell Inspiron, both running WIN98. Did get it going on a Sony FR415S running XP.
Called Microsoft US helpline - suspiciously Indian voice made it clear he did not understand the problem but could not help me as I am in the UK. Microsoft UK will not help me as they do not sell this product in the UK. .NET support came up with some woffle about PCMCIA drivers maybe not correct. On the machine for which it was bought it is junk, although the box says it works on WIN98! Very disappointed.
