Orinoco WiFi - is this good for linux wireless/compatibility/sniffing?

Orinoco wireless card. I'm going to use it for wireless in linux
primarily, also windows. And for administrative purposes to sniff my
networks. Is this card good?

Manufacturers keep changing the chipsets in their cardsi while keeping the
