Just got my new laptop (yay) and am finally moving on from windows XP; I have bought a Lenovo L430. I'm 19 and will be using the laptop for university next year mainly writing, reading, editing my photos and using the internet a bit.
So I have put said laptop on to charge and, while sorting out the giant cardboard box, I found a smaller box which contains a Smart Card reader. (Specifically the Gemplus ExpressCard Smart Card Reader from Lenovo)
Now from a little research I understand it is for security purposes. But can someone please explain:
What it means and do I need it? Do I have to buy a card to go in the card reader? Is it like an antivirus thing like Norton or something or what?
Aargh, need help.
