Cardbus is a 32 bit PCI version of the PC Card standard.  This extra
bandwidth is important for things like 100mbps ethernet and video capture. 
The TP760E models have this feature.  Only Win95 OSR2 has native drivers
for this interface.  Xircom provides proprietary socket services for older
operating systems.
