Is it a flat card that plugs into a slot on a labtop, Or is it a usb plug?

you have to get a converter to put in your desktop which one depends on what type of card it is pcmcia or the newer pci express here's a couple resourses i googled pretty quickly

labtops have pci slots in them? when did that happen? I'm pertty sure pc's don't have pcmcia slots, but don't know if there is an adapter for the pc to use this type of cards.
