    PCMCIA or PC card slots look like this ;



    Most laptops have them , but i think theyre started to get phased out for USB devices.

        if you are not bothered about live, you can buy a pre-flashed banned xbox on the likes of gumtree for under ?50. You probably wouldn't get a hard disk with it though so you would have to factor that into the cost

                    you will also find that it will be region locked and wont play most titles released in uk , unless its a region free release

                    Microsoft have this base covered as have every other console and game manufactures since the early days of gaming

                    the reason they lock regions is to stop people importing them for a cheaper price

                      Hi there you can use the O2 dongle to go on XBOX Live.
                      Little bit of work involved networking from your laptop but can be done.
                      Can get detailed instruction info if you want.
