(Posted by: David M on 2010-01-30 04:10:18)

I have an Acer Aspie One Netbook. I have already upgraded the original 1gb ram to 2gb and do notice an improvement on speed of applications, web browsing etc. I am curious though what the third "slot " on the bottom of the Netbook is for. There's a hard drive slot and ram slot but theres also a third. I read its for a "mini PCi card " can somebody explain to me what this is and it I could benefit from it? oh and its running windows xp if that helps any

Sure, that is for an addon card for the computer, such as a Wireless LAN card. It's similar to your PCI bus on a desktop computer. I'm unaware of any other type of Mini PCI cards Hope this helps!
