First there was PCMCIA 1.

Then there was PCMCIA 2. Then came CardBus (PCMCIA form factor) Then came ExpressPCI (1/2 PCMCIA form factor) Then came MiniPCI internal (tiny circuit board with edge connector) PCMCIA, CardBus and ExpressPCI are all deader than a boar hog at a Luau. Modern laptops (with a few rather expensive exceptions) only have Sound in/out, USB, Ethernet, HDMI and maybe a VGA connector. And the VGA connector is gonna be gone soon. Next will be the Sound in/out and then the Ethernet port. As Apple would say "why would any reasonable person need more than WiFi, HDMI and USB?" Present/future interfaces include cellular data connectivity and digital sound. Even the venerable keyboard and mouse are on the laptop endangered-list.
