PCMCIA allegedly stands for Personal Computer Memory Card
International Association but really stands for People Can't Memorize
Computer Industry Acronyms.
PCMCIA cards were renamed PC Cards a long time ago, but the name
stuck.
For more details about PC Cards [1] (PCMCIA)
Many cards that are referred to as "PCMCIA cards" are actually
CardBus [2] cards.
