Personal Computer Memory Card International Association
     
         (PCMCIA, or "PC Card") An
        international trade association and the {standards} they have
        developed for devicies, such as {modems} and external {hard
        disk} drives, that can be plugged into {notebook computers}.
        A PCMCIA card is about the size of a credit card.
     
        For some unfathomable reason, around 1995(?) they decided to
        rename PCMCIA cards "PC Cards", perhaps to encourage sales to
        confused purchasers.
