How can I connect a pcmcia card to my shuttle mini pc? I've seen pci
adapters to pcmcia, but I don't have an available pci slot.

No way. Your cheapest and best option is a new USB wireless adapter.
You can also connect a client radio via the ethernet port.

I do have a Raylink USB to PCMCIA adapter. It works with Raylink
wireless cards, but when I tried other brands of wireless cards, it
would screw up badly. My guess(tm) is that the USB driver for the
adapter is somehow tangled together with the wireless card driver. I
couldn't find any other USB to PCMCIA adapters:

That leaves USB or ethernet connected wireless.

Has anybody seen a Cardbus (PCMCIA) to PCI Express adaptor?
