which toshiba is it?

i have a toshiba laptop (portege 7200) and a canon elph with a 128 meg
compact flash card.  the pc card interface works fine (although the pc
card handling is weird[*], which is why i ask) even thought the usb
interface for the card does *nothing*.

[*] if i plug in two pc cards at once, it will recognize them.  i
usually unplug them both at the same time as well, although sometimes
it "forgets" to "remove" one.  if this happens too much, i can lose
track of whether the cards are in or not, never mind the laptop.
