    I opened up this laptop and did not find a place to insert a Bluetooth card ... Is this laptop able to take 1?

    Probably not. I think it may have to be configured with BT when ordered and it may have to be soldered on the MB. I suggest just buying one of the many USB BT mini receivers.

    You could've had the bluetooth if you opted for the option when you configured the laptop.
