Thanks, but 100E secondhand means it's probably well out of my price
range. My laptop does have a PCMCIA slot. I have a compact flash card
reader that plugs into it, but data transfers are very slow through it.
I wouldn't be surprised to find that the silly laptop shares interrupts
with PCMCIA, video and audio hardware!
