    Ok, I have this new computer, and there are those 2 things at the front. I have no idea what they're there for, they have the following subscripts:

    1.CF/Microdrive
    2. SM (above it), MS (left below), SD, MMC (right below)

    Skweeky,

    I believe that the CF/Microdrive is a slot to put the card from a digital camera in and transfer data. Think Dazzle reader...
    I have no idea what the other stuff is.

    SM = Smart Media
    MS = Memory Stick
    SD = Secure Digital
    MMC = MultiMedia Card
