There are actually 5 PCMCIA chipsets, 2 of which are popular (there
are more than 5, but they emulate one of the 5 command sets).  The
DataBook is one of the unpopular ones.

I believe there was ENPIC (PCMCIA interface chipset enabler) code
for the DataBook at the DataBook www site (at least it was there
at one time).
