Not true in reality, Neil... that IS the "company line" though. Unless I set
the sockets in Toshiba laptops to "PCIC-Compatible" ( NOT auto-selected ) a
certain IBM wireless PC-card does not work. And even if I do set PCIC my
Satellite Pro 4320 does not work with this card.

Sadly, only Toshiba AFIK has the selection. A friend's NEC laptop just plain
rejected it altogether.
