duh, why don't it work

[Chip Fetrow]

You can't.

It will go in the slot, but the pins won't go into the connector.  It  
is generally pretty obvious because the card extends out nearly 1/4  
inch more than normal.  Some slots are a bit narrower (top to bottom)  
and some cards are a bit thicker, and in that combination they are  
very difficult to slide in at all.

It is PCMCIA, by the way.  It was such a difficult term to remember  
they tried to rename it to PC Card.  That really didn't take.
