Brilliant! Looks native like that too. :)  Nice job! Did you add that little heat sink on top?

I wish I'd got 2 Mechware card readers as now my A590 is void of an HDD. But the Mechware card reader now installed in my A2K is simply awesome.

Your Mechware card reader being a different model than mine is quit interesting. Mine has a PCMCIA slot and a CF card slot. However, your PCMCIA adapter slides in nearly flush with the front of main circuit board where mine sticks out about 1.5 inches.

Which got me to thinking... I wonder if a wireless card (which would stick out of the slot on my model) would work in the PCMCIA slot? Now that I think about it, maybe even a 32bit card might work - have to check the specs on the slot. I think I'll try it!
