    looks like everything is going 'express' (agp to pci-express, pcmcia to expresscard)

    well, americans are always in a hurry so everything's express! but i wish everything's going express were true, there still not enough express cards and too many pcmcia cards such as the MUCH NEEDED express sound card.

    The Compal HEL80 and HGL30 are the only two new Core Duo laptops that I am aware of that have both PCMCIA and Express Card slots. You can get more information about them in the Compal manufacturer's section of this forum
