That's easy. Look at the connector end (top up) to the left. Cardbus cards and pcmcia cards differ at that spot. This is the best I can do in ascii:
+---- top ++ | connector +----- bottom ^ this part is thick on cardbus.
+---- top | ++ +----- bottom ^ this part is thin on pcmcia. This is so that cardbus cards won't fit into a system that doesn't support cardbus. (This is what I assumed, but I don't believe all manufacturers made the slots that way)
