I have a Dell laptop and use a PCMCIA card to make my network connection.  I
also have one that has two USB ports on it.  I have also heard you can get
MODEMS that way and extra storeage but don't have personal experience with
these.  Hope this helps.

Hello Friends,
could you please tell me what functionalities are possible with PCMCIA card
in a laptop?
would it be a substitute for USB Port also?

thanks
