Laptops come with a slot known as PCMCIA card slot. Click the following link for a definition of PCMCIA:

*www.webopedia.com/TERM/P/PCMCIA.html

It is basically a slot and you can use PCMCIA devices such as modems, sound cards, wifi cards, etc. Think of it as a sort of expansion slot for laptops.

Since you want to use it with a desktop, look for a PCMCIA reader so that you can connect the reader to your desktop and then insert the Airtel card in it.
