Expansion slot?

Guys

I'm right in saying this isn't for SD memory cards......

What's it's purpose?

You mean on the Macbooks?

It's an Express Card slot for putting Express Card 34/54 in.

You can get Express Cards that do all sorts of things - memory card readers, Wireless Receivers, eSata terminals.

You get the idea.

Oh right! Sorry to sound dumb I did check around but couldn't get my head round what exactly it was used for, so I could get one installed so I could pop my digital camera SD card into it?

Yup they just click in and out.

I have a eSATA card.

Sorry mate, I wasn't trying to sound patronising, should have put a smilie in there to show you my reply was a bit tongue-in-cheek.
