External PCI Box for Laptops?

cagem0nkey asks: "I am in need of some type of external PCI card box for use with a laptop. I was able to find several different solutions, but these were all WAY to expensive for my wallet (at around $1,000 ea for one PCI slot!). Does anyone know of a cheaper way to add PCI card capability to a laptop? Possibly a USB or Firewire external enclosure?"

Buy the 13-slot for $1900 and return 12 of them for a return of around $1753. Then, you'd have one slot for around $147

If your time is so valuable, why did you click through the story, and spend the time to post a rant about it?

Because he's at work getting paid to do it. ;)

Oh, I understood him, it just rubs me the wrong way when I'm in RS or BB and I hear this week's clueless employee tell some nice old lady that this laptop has 2 gigs of processor and 40 gigahertz of hard drive.

Some may think I'm making that up, but I shit you not, that's what the kid said.
