Re: loose express card

Mark,
26 pins just doesn't hold as well as the 68 pins of the PCMCIA cards. With all the slop in the card slot, in your application, I can forsee some intermittent problems down the road if you don't come up with a solution that locks everything into place. I like the velcro solution in Ryan's forum but hate it on the control surface. It is just too ugly for me. Velcro applied underneath might be the way to go. I also like 3M Duallock which is more positive and won't let go when you really need it. It is available most places you can get velcro.
