Punky: Ive generally found B to be much more stable than G, Though G is obviously a lot faster B seems to have a much stronger signal and as such can reach top speed even through several walls.
At the moment I only get 36mbps over my 54mbps network due to interference, I used to get the full 11mbps over my old B network, though my old B network did have positional antennas so that could be why.

I used to use the Netgear MA101 USB wireless B NIC's, I now use the D-link G520 PCI Wireless G NIC's. I often find that the Case of the PC interferes with the signal of the PCI cards, this wasnt a problem with the USB cards as they had a 1m cable to move them around on.
