Pros: Works fine was a life saver because I needed to use a Wireless Aircard in a location with no phone lines. This was the only PCI to PCMCIA adapter that fits the low profile slots.
Cons: The PCMCIA cards on insert 1 to 2 inches in the adapter. This leaves a lot sticking out the back of your computer. This makes it easy to break the card off. Also if you happen to have Dell Optiplex GX620 or another brand of computer with the same main board this card fits very tight. The black molded frame that the PCMCIA card slides into actually touches one of the capicators on the main board.
Overall Review: If the PCMCIA cards inserted further I would have given this 5 stars.
