    Using a Flash Memory Card
    I was given a COBY 256 Memory Card, it is about the size of a postage stamp, I am wondering Where I put it in my computer to save things on it, I have looked everywhere, not sure where to put it. Thank you

    Well, it depends on what computer you have. If you have a Mac of any kind (including MacBook Air (yes I know it's not out yet)) then forget it. Many older PC's won't have a slot. You will mostly find the slots on a laptop, fairly new. And oh yeah, it would say SD or Micro SD near the slot. If it's a Memmory Stick Duo (or PRO Duo) then you might need a speasial madapter. CAUTION: if it looks to small, DO NOT put it in. I once got my new Memmory Stick PRO Duo stuck in my laptop!

    Your best option will be to purchase a card reader/writer.

    This will allow you to use the card as external memory as well as using in a camera or
    Other device and allow you to transfer the data to your computer.

    You can get them anywhere for less than $30.
