Re: Gigabit Network card....
Looked, not found any Gigabit PCMCIA's - the fact that the full bandwith could not be handled down the bus, is not a valid reason for them not to exist since full throughput directed to a single machine is a limiting case.

Sounds like you need a switch that can operate in buffered (store and forward) mode and transpose between Gigabit and 100 - that way you still get Gigabit throughput between the PCI-equipped machines, and 100 to the laptop
