Can a desktop computer be used for wireless internet?

In an RV? Thanks in advance.

Yes. The "3g" class of wireless access, or GPRS, can use certain
cellphones, or dedicated cards. None of the access methods care whether
your device is a laptop or desktop. There are some PCMCIA cards that won't
fit in a standard computer without an adapter, but USB or PCI devices will
work for you.
