Advice Needed Re USB Ports

Hi Guys

We need some advice re adding USB Ports.

Our laptop has only one USB1 Port and we need to increase the number of Ports for future use.

There seems to be two options available.

A Powered 4-7 Port USB2 Hub.or - a 4 Port USB2 PCMCIA Card Bus 32/16 Bit.
We have a slot available for the PCMCIA Card.

One of the ports will be used for a DSI Pro. which I believe is a little bit power hungry.

Will a PCMCIA Card give me full USB2 power ? compared to the Powered USB2 Hub which will be connected to the present USB1 Port.

Any advice most welcome.

David
