Bring PCMCIA Back!

70 points posted to Laptops by sparkinium 07/11/07

ExpressCards are the new PCMCIA. They've even replaced the PCMCIA on all but one line of Dell laptops. Unfortunately for the end-users, most cards are still PCMCIA. Performing internet searches, thousands of PCMCIA cards are available when merely a handful of ExpressCard expansion options exist. This is a disadvantage to us, the consumers, in that we have fewer options for expansion and, in addition, we cannot use our old cards.

Please incorporate the PCMCIA slot back into your notebook offerings!
