    I cant tell, just wanted to know if its PCI or whatever and can run it on other laptops. Would be kinda cool. Says its a Avermedia card.

    Yea, I'm pretty sure its just a module inside the laptop.

    Just remember that not all laptops can 'take' it, it needs the space and the right connnections, wires and ports

    the jack doesnt move. The jack has a small antenna wire that goes to the mini pci card like a wifi card antenna.
