Ah, yeh, it looks like Express Cards replaced the old PC Cards (PCMCIA). I don't think I've actually seen one on any of my recent laptops though, but maybe I just didn't recognize it. I did a Google on "Express Cards sound audio", and it looks like Creative has a Sound Blaster Express Card. I don't know anything about them though. Good luck!
