I love this stuff. See kids, I was around back in the olden days when your laptop didn\'t have much built-in stuff.. so for instance, we had expansion cards (called PCMCIA cards) for a buncha stuff, even network cards and Wifi and, in this case, an external CD-Rom drive.For real, these things are sweet. I\'ve actually got a handful that I need to sale soon, and this is the first one.I\'m betting some of you out there have your old Sony CD-ROM Discman and you lost the card to a long time ago, and the poor little drive sits there in a box, wondering if he\'ll ever spin up and access your Encarta CD ever again. Well now you can make that a reality!sale is just for the card itself, no cable or drive.And do me a favor and take this thing off my hands for me - I\'ve got way too much stuff as it is. Thanks!!
