So it seems I have a type II slot bay.



In which case, it should be possible to put an ethernet card into one (or both) of the two slots available. Might be time to take this venerable ex-schoolkid toy to my friendly local computer supply shop and see what he has.


A store is likely to sell you a new 32-bit cardbus card (gold colored strip with bumps at the end) which won't work with BL3 even if it fits into your machine.


Compact Flash cards were introduced in 1994 and fit into PCMCIA Type II
adaptor. Is your computer pre 1994?

Don't know. The label underneath is still intact and says:

T2130CS/520 System Unit
Model No. PA1196EA
and a serial number.
