Cardbus adapters are PC-Card's supporting a 32bit interface. All NEWER notebookes support this... May also be called "32 bit PCMCIA, etc.." Older PC Cards (think 5+ years back) only support standard 16-bit PC Card.
16 bit PC Card basically used ISA technology
32 bit PC Card basically is a PCI interface</font>
Time for me to take a look at the specs for my Inspiron (3 and half years of age). The ability to use USB 2 would add a little to my notebook's life while I look at replacements (which, of course, get better all the time).
