Hello Sandi, I think they meant it would work if you have a PCMCIA card slot on your PC. I have bought a couple add on PCMCIA card adaptors to use on my desktop PC's. from Goggle: PC Card Slot Desktop Adapters for PCI and ISA BusUSB Adapters For PCMCIA and CardBus cards. Whatever peripheral you want to connect, Elan has a product to help. www.pccard.co.uk/adapter/index.php /V\ike one of the mods ******* REPLY SEPARATOR ********* On 8/13/2008 at 11:55 AM Sandi Beach wrote: G, just picked up the data card for 14 day trial. A quick look over makes me think I cannot use this on my desktop even though they said it could work. When I picked it up one of the workers commented that it might not work on your PC. That was the first I had heard that my PC might not be compatible. I have a disk (CD) to run first and then I am to insert the aircard modem into the card slot. My PC has no card slot. So have I been lead down the garden path????
