Since a lot of people have assurred you it does, I'll just say that there are a
few USB adapters which also work, if you have any strong reason for wanting to
go this way (slots?) I'll look and see what I have. When I was looking I found
it in three Radio Shack stores and two Office Max locations (at four different
prices). That speaks well for availability, but it's not PCI.
My kid has one working, I could ask him if you really need an alternate vendor.
