Yup.

Nope, not by a long shot. There are three types of PCMCIA cards, type 1,
2 and 3. Type 1 cards are as thick as the connector. Type 2 cards are a
few mm thicker then the connector. Type 3 cards are VERY fat, they end
up being about the thickness of two Type 2 cards.

If his machine only supports Type 1 then that's all that will fit. Type
1 in my experience is quite rare, almost all cards out there are type 2,
with a few being type 3. Only cards I've ever seen that were type 1 were
memory cards a LONG time ago.
