Thinkpads Forum

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I'll guess.

I'm looking for a recent laptop, hopefully Core 2 Duo at least (it doesn't need to have it, I'm actually clueless on this issue) but what's the newest Thinkpad or other series IBM laptop that comes with a dock that could use a PCI card?

The alternative is a PCI to USB adapter, which is extremely expensive, and almost exclusively industrial.

Much appreciated,

You'd be talking about the Advanced Dock 2503.

Scroll down to see a list of all the TPs that can use it.

That uses a PCI-Express adapter in it, I'm looking for regular PCI

Full height support is better to have as well.

Asking a lot, yes...

You sure you want to go that route? This is the only one with PCI slot:
