all CF cards are the same.
I suspect Rob's point is that if the socket that the card is going into is poor, the possibility of bending a pin due to a crooked insertion is that much greater.
I know it has been a PITA for us, including one glorious incident where a customer managed to short something with their CF card and let all the smoke out of our countertop unit.

Hmm, no. CF cards have the highest rate of failure on insertion due to bending of the plug's connector plugs. It's generally not the card that fails, it's the socket that you're plugging it into.
