Sorry for being anal, but those are only found as CardBus cards.
Why does it matter?
- It annoys the heck out of me when I'm specifically looking for PCMCIA stuff, not CardBus stuff, and then 90% of the links that advertise PCMCIA cards are infact CardBus, and not compatible with that old laptop I needed it for.
Thus, I'm on an endless fight against windmills to make people aware of this fact. :-) Just about the only common things with PCMCIA and CardBus are the form factor and physical connector.. (even quite a few signals differ between the two)

Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now. Sorry for being a pain.

Hmm, I guess I should stop my long crusade then, if people don't care what they're speaking about?
Soon I'll probably get SDRAM DIMMs when I buy an EDO SIMM somewhere, since they're both memory modules. :-(
