Does my laptop have a PCMCIA slot?

[mb72378]

I just got a laptop for school, nothing special. It has a few card slots but I am not sure it one of the is a PCMCIA slot. I don't have my HVX yet and I dont plan on editing on it (cause I couldnt even if I wanted to) but I was hoping to use it as a Hard Drive to store P2 files on. I was hoping that someone could look at the specs and tell me if I have one or not. The prodect name is: HP Pavillion dv2000

No, that laptop does not. It has the newer expresscard interface. You would need something like the Duel Adapter from Duel-Systems... which is a expresscard --> PCMCIA adapter.
