Subject: Re: pcmcia sound card recommendations

PC Club carries several that are compatible with linux. I purchased a
generic one in a small box for 7 bucks and it works great. 6.1 sound and
all.
It even said LINUX on the side of the box!

Swing by there and see if they have one.

Here are the PC Club store locations in that region:

*PC Club Ahwatukee* - 4923 E. Chandler Blvd Ste 301, Phoenix

*PC Club Arrowhead* - 7530 W. Bell Road, Suite 102, Glendale

*PC Club Mesa * - 1240 West Southern Ave. , Mesa

*PC Club Phoenix * - 2316 W. Bethany Home Rd Suite#119 , Phoenix
