PCMCIA games controller?

All,

Has anyone seen a way to add a games port to a laptop without a docking
station?  Is there a PCMCIA card for this?  I have a joystick from a previous
desktop and I would like to use a wheel, but I have no way to connect them as
they all use the games controller port.

TIA,

Andrew

You should have no problem finding a PCMCIA game card.  My local computer
shop has one called the JC GameCard Pro for 99.- CHF (about 65 bucks).

I picked up a BASICS Gameport from Egghead last year. I think it was
around $69 for just the card and $89 with a joystick.
