The only comment I can add, is that if you get a PCMCIA one, if at all possible make sure it has a slim exterior such that you can put both it and another PCMCIA in at the same time....

I have 2 PCMCIA slots on my laptop, but both the cards I use (wirless & USB2) extend upwards. So I can't put both in at the same time. Hard to explain sorry.

I could have instead, if I knew about the problem before, bought a USB PCMCIA card which instead of having the ports directly on it, had a thin cable coming off that then split in to the ports. This would have allowed me to fit both cards in at the same time. I suspect the same choices would be available for RS232.

Happy to provide photo's sometime in the next couple of days if you don't understand my ramblings..

Roger.
